PhotoRec is free and works very well.

My go-to for these things is DiskDrill Pro, but in most cases with CFast, if the card was formatted in the camera body the data is already gone. Sorry :/

If it’s a red camera this would be first point of call. http://docs.red.com/955-0076/REDUNDEADOperationGuide/Content/1_Overview/REDUNDEADOverview.htm Xdcam has similar http://www.xdcam-user.com/2019/01/recovering-footage-from-formatted-cards/ Sony Venice you can try treasured https://aeroquartet.com/treasured/sony-xocn.en.html If Alexa your out of luck as the Alexa zeroes the card as well as formatting the header. Any other camera I wouldn’t know but you might as well try many of the hundreds of media recovery apps out there.

Pretty sure it’s gone. In my experience, data recovery is generally for a damaged card not one that’s been wiped.

You need to get out more. Most formats aren't secure formats


JesterSooner

And yet I don’t see you providing the solution... if you’ve got a way to recover a formatted camera card then throw the guy some help

Just own up and tell them what you've done. It won't be pretty, but you'll feel better afterwards.


HeyBriansOn

Oh it wasn’t me. They came to me in hopes I could fix it.


BlueOXMotel

Ah man, that sucks. Hope you can fix it. I formatted a card once, searched high and low how to sort it. Couldn't do it, Nearly had a heart attack. Owned up to it. Life goes on. Haha.
