How to Recover Deleted Photos from Sony Digital

First things first – in order to gain biggest success ratio of Sony photo recovery, the moment you find your photos lost, immediately stop using the device. If you are using Sony Cybershot camera, do not take new photos. If you are using Sony Vaio laptop, stop writing anything back to the hard drive. This is to avoid photo overwriting. Once data contained in the photos are overwritten, chances of recovery will be reduced.

STEP 1 : Connect your Sony device to your PC. If you are using Sony laptop, directly highlight the drive to go to next step. If you are using an external device such as Sony digital camera or SD memory card, connect it to PC via a USB cable or card reader. After connection, free download and install Sony photo recovery software. Open the program, the main interface is like below. Click ‘Start Scan’ button.

STEP 2 : Highlight the disk drive your Sony storage media represents under “My Computer” and continue to next step. Now the application will perform a scanning process using read-only operations to find those lost photos.

STEP 3 : Preview found photos and Recover. Once the scanning is completed, be free to preview the files by operating through the directory tree on the left part of the software interface. Then clickRecover option and save them to another drive. Note: do not save recovered photos back to the Sony source drive.

If photos became inaccessible due to Sony memory card errors – Try this: use Sony photo recovery tool to scan and recover from the error memory card (of your Sony Cybershot digital camera) for lost pictures. Then format the memory card through the quick format option on your PC, usually this will make it work normally again. After that retry the recovery software to see if you can gain more valuable data because formatting will not wipe the data permanently.
