[QUOTE="m_evangelista, post: 171397, member: 15512"] Hello, I am new here, and have a strange issue. I'm hoping for advice and/or empathy. I have a Nikon d40 which I have used regularly for at least 3 years. I use an Eye-Fi wireless card, which has been in the camera and served me very well for almost as long. But this week, I took some very special photos of visiting family and upon returning home, 80+ images have simply vanished. By that I mean: _ photos from the day before are fine, as are images from the same day, before and after the missing ones _ the battery was running low but the camera was still shooting, photos were being taken and we could look back through them after taking the shots _ nobody deleted the images _ the last 80+ I took on the low battery are those that are missing, then I put in a new battery _ upon copying from the camera's SD card, these images are simply not there _ via wi-fi and putting the card in my computer, the image numbering skips about 80 images _ recovery software (recuva, and others) find deleted images from the past 12 months or more, but not these So, my question: Is there a condition under which the camera would take the picture, show the picture, but then not actually keep the picture on the SD card? Could it be a corruption of memory? The fact it skipped numbering shows me those images were there, but i have no idea where they may have gone. Any advice or suggestions appreciated, i would love to find these photos but as noted even recovery software does not find them on this card. [/QUOTE]
