TIFU by accidently formatting a micro sd card on the osmo 3 of our London trip.

r/

Accidently reformatted a micro sd card in my osmo pocket 3 last night. I immediately stopped recording any further footage and will hope and pray I can recover it when I get back, but my stomach dropped like a roller when I realized I lost about 100gb of footage and photos of the 256gb by accident. After extensive research it appears there is a “chance” I may be able to recover some of it, but my heart is broken. Why would I do that??? GAHHHHH!!

Slight comfort? It was a very quick format to be fair, so I highly doubt All the footage is entirely gone and unretrievable but most likely I won’t be able to recover 100% of it.

TL;DR: I’m currently on a Europe vaca, and accidentally deleted all London footage off micro sd card by reformatting it with the osmo pocket 3. RIP.

    Those recovery programs work really well. I think you’ll be surprised by how much you can get back. Post updates when you return!
