How to recover deleted or lost images from Panasonic Lumix GH3

Panasonic GH2 which was released 18 months back which really impressed us with its features. It’s capability of capturing a high level still images and video footage. Now this time Panasonic arrived with its new version that is GH3, which is the successor of GH2.

Panasonic launched its early sample of GH3 in Photokina 2012; people were very excited to see this sample of GH3.

Panasonic had done a lot of research and consulted around 100 Panasonic GH2 users, including professional photographers, film makers, broadcasters and post production, to listen what they would like to see in GH2 replacement.

Panasonic says that they had achieved 75-80% required changes with the launch of GH3.

Now, it’s time for us to wait and see when GH3 will come in the market for users. After consulting with many users of GH2 I found it had few common problems which were related to photo loss from camera and they were really tensed because of the photo loss.

This is why I am explaining the method through which you can recover your lost photos from Panasonic GH3.

Expended Capacity of Flash Memory Devices – Click, Save and Sleep

DHC memory card stands for secure digital high capacity memory card. SDHC memory card is a flash memory device with data storage capacity of maximum 32 GB. If you need more data storage capacity you should go for SDXC(extended memory ). SDXC memory card maximum capacity is 2TB. According to SD association you could store 100 HD movies, 60 hours of HD recording, or 17,000 high resolution photos on a SDXC card.

As the storage capacity of flash memory devices is expending year by year , the risk of data loss is also rising. People have stopped taking the backup of the files and they keep all the data in flash memory devices.

Suppose your 2 TB SDXC card does not have any space and you replace it with a new flash memory card. After few months when you insert your old fully filled memory card into your

camera to delete few pictures from it, it shows error message “memory card locked” or “Memory card corrupted”. It means that you are going to loose your 17,000 memorable photos and uncountable memories that attached with that photos. You can't imagine your condition in that situation any more.

Now days you don't need to worry about it. You should be thankful to technology to make you life easier on every step, it doesn't matter you are in trouble because of our mistakes or bad luck.
