I accidentally copied over some image files because they had the same image number - I have lost about 300 photos. I am a photographer and take great lengths to not let this happen, but here we are. Can I recover these lost files? I read that Mac doesn’t delete but simply renames and labels the other files as space available again, but until the file space is needed it wont be gone - but I don’t know about WD Passport. Any and all suggestions are helpful!
Additional info, I shoot on CF cards, my two cameras were shooting with the same file count - which I did not know until now - I copied the files to the same folder and before I noticed what happened the Cake Cutting and Toast photos were missing. I have already formatted and shot on all my CF cards, because I had a wedding the next day and didn’t take the time to ensure - that was my biggest mistake.
Thanks!
