Oh no, I didn’t mean to delete that one!!
Just imagine - you’ve just come back from that holiday of a lifetime/wedding of your best mate/leaving do for a colleague. You sit down at night and browse through them all and decide that, despite the fact you’ve had perhaps one too many alcopops, you should sort out the good ones from the not-so-good ones. And, inevitably, you get the good and the bad muddled up and accidentally delete the best shot of the night. Lost forever.
Well, maybe not. If you come to see us we may be able to recover the image from your memory card for you.
Additionally, if you should somehow have a corrupted memory card and cannot access your images, it may be that we can find them for you.
Priceless!
Tips that come to my mind:
1. Always upload photos from your camera to your computer first before sorting out the good/bad ones.
2. Avoid using card readers built into computers(because you can make a mistake whether photos are on card reader or hard-drive).
3. Use USB photo transfer from camera to computer.
4. Only sort out photos already stored on your computer’s hard-drive.
5. Never delete photos from you camera until you’re happy with the computer results.
6. Please buy yourself more than one memory card, it’s worth it.
7. Burn a CD/DVD of your photos on a regular basis.
8. Print your photos at Stamford Photo Express.
9. ! Pressing ‘format’ on your digital camera should only be done when photos are stored and printed.
10. No alcopops and photo work at the same time

myself. Especially the bit about where to print your photos that just “goes without saying”.
Digital camera owners take note of these tips by T.C and save yourselves that trip to us for image recovery.
Thank-you T.C for more great input.
