Thanks everyone! It was a wonderful birthday until....
my husband told me he couldn't load up the pictures from my niece's baptism. :eek: Apparently, the card malfunctioned and he reformatted it and that means no more baptism pictures.

I can't even think of how I'm going to tell my sister. I had some really special ones and I just wish my husband hadn't panicked so we could have taken the disk to a professional to see if they could salvage the pictures. :(

I am confident the card can still be read with some special software when formatted with a Canon. I know the Nikon D70 really formates fully while many Canon don't.

Sophia, I took most of the pictures (unfortunately) although I am going to contact a few of my family members and ask for copies of their photos.

Olly, do you think they can still be retrieved even though he reformatted it? I really wish he hadn't done that but by the time I found out he had already done so. I asked why he didn't just change the card so we could figure it out together (or hand it over to a professional) and I'm certain he's asking himself the same question so I didn't push the issue. He feels so terrible about it already.:o

Yes, I believe so.
I think the 20D does not really format. It just deletes the index of the memory card but the photos should be there, unless you overwrite them by taking other photos.
