Just got hold of a 1.4 myself... had heard a few rumours regarding a known weakness... i'll be storing mine as suggested above from now on!

Recuva worked perfectly for me on a number of occasions: I even posted on my blog about it a while back. Downloaded it for free from piriform's website. Disaster Recovery: How to rescue your deleted images! I can highly recommend it.

Just a quick message to introduce myself. Martyn, 33, West Yorkshire. Been shooting for a number of years now: my current passion involving automotive stuff I'd guess... Galleries over on flickr, 500px and my personal website. Happy to turn my hand to anything, photography wise. I...
