C-Photo Recovery: Recover Your Pieces of Photo Art

[ Comments Off ] Posted on 06.01.10 under Desktop Publishing, Graphic Apps

Carpov Data Recovery company announces the major update of C-photo Recovery, a tool for digital photographers recovery. Developed for restoring lost and corrupt digital pictures, the solution has now increased in efficiency due to Power Search technology. Even if a memory card or a hard disk drive is completely unreadable, C-photo Recovery is still able to find and recover necessary files.

Though memory cards that are used in up-to-date models of digital cameras are much more reliable than photographic film, sometimes certain digital pictures get damaged, and whole memory cards can get absolutely unreadable. No photographer would put up with loss of his pictures, be that real pieces of art or just happy memories of a vacation. Of course, there is a variety of recovery tools, but C-photo Recovery is intended for photos recovery only – and that is why it works more thoroughly, recovering maximum possible number of images in all popular formats.

The most recovery tools work as follows: they search for records of recently deleted files in the file system and try to recover them on the basis of such information. But what if the file system is corrupt? The secret of efficiency of C-photo Recovery lies in the special Power Search technology used when scanning memory cards or hard drives. The solution detects signatures marking the beginning and the end of digital pictures and uses the results of the scanning together with file system records, performing comprehensive recovery even in case of hard drive or memory card corruption.

Besides compact-size digital cameras, a considerable number of people use SLR ones to use more sophisticated settings and to get pictures of higher quality. Shooting in .RAW format contributes to the convenience of processing and increases image quality, but such images are not supported by common recovery solutions. However, C-photo Recovery is able to recognize and recover SLR .RAW files, which is a really rare feature.

C-Photo Recovery at a Glance:

- Power Search technology for comprehensive recovery;
- Support for SLR .RAW (Canon, Nikon, Pentax, Samsung, SONY and Adobe DNG .RAW files)
- Support for all popular graphic formats (.JPEG, .GIF, .PNG, .BMP, etc.);

Pricing and Availability

C-photo Recovery is compatible with Windows 98ME/NT/XP/2000/2003/Vista. A single-user license of C-photo Recovery costs 39.95 USD. Further information on the product, as well as its free trial edition, is available from http://c-datarecovery.com
