Well this is exactly what happened to me recently at 3:00am in the morning, tired in total darkness while photographing the milky way I swapped out a full memory card and replaced it with a fresh one. Well at least I thought I did but instead I put the card in the wrong pocket of my camera bag and and when I reach for a fresh one it was actually the same SD card I took out. In a total moment of madness while rushing not to disrupt my series of images I formatted what I thought was a fresh memory card without even checking what was on it!

You think it would be easy to find decent reviews and software for a Mac to recover deleted Photo files but I found most were written by people that had obviously never even tested the software they were reviewing or stating software was free when it was not.
First software on my list is Disk Drill which is claimed by many review sites to be the top free recovery app for the mac OS. So first of all let me just put this right to recover files from a formatted memory card the application is not free! Most people will be searching for software after they have accidentally deleted their images after formatting and to use this software in this scenario you will have to pay to recover your files.
Disk Drill does have some great functionalities such as image preview capabilities which I found great so you can drill down and just recover the images you want rather than recovering the entire card content. This is extremely useful if you have a large storage device to speed up the process of recovery.
The installation process for Disk Drill is certainly not overly complicated where you just install the software like any other .dmg file and drag it to your applications folder. There is an additional step that needs to be performed in the setup process which is granting access for the software to your hardware. This is very simple though as it has a quick link button in the setup procedure which guides you through the process to authorise access and grant the necessary privileges.
It took around 8 mins to perform deep scans of the SanDisk Extreme 32GB SD Memory Cards where it found all of the Nikon Raw files that had been deleted by both types of formats and more old previously deleted files. The total size of recovered data was 39.43 GB in a total of 3267 files.
I then performed the exact same test on the SanDisk Extreme PLUS 128GB Micro SD containing 59 .DNG files and 13 .MOV files. This took around 32 minutes to perform a deep scan of the memory card but it performed excellently and found all the files ready for recovery plus others from previous formats.
Overall performance was good and it recovered all files and more from all memory cards after carrying out both types of formats. As I like to say it did exactly what it says on the tin although not for free!
Labelled as a professional data recovery package for Mac, EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard claims to retrieve photos, videos, music files, documents, emails, and more from Mac-based devices: HDD, SSD, fusion drive, Time Machine backup drive, SD card, memory card, USB drive, camera, etc.
It took around 6 minutes to perform deep scans of the SanDisk Extreme 32GB SD Memory Cards where it found all of the Nikon Raw files that had been deleted by both types of formats and more of the old previously deleted files. The total size of recovered data was 37.38 GB in a total of 3245 files.
I then performed the same tests on the SanDisk Extreme PLUS 128GB Micro SD containing 59 .DNG files and 13 .MOV files and pleased to say it also recovered these without any problems and took around 30 minutes to perform the deep scan.
A fantastic part of the software interface is that you can very easily change the file view to thumbnails which makes searching for the files you want to recover a breeze and one thing that I really like about the software.
The same as EaseUS the installation of the software was very simple and straightforward by simply downloading the .dmg file and installing the software. Hassle free with no issues I was up and running in a couple of minutes.
The one thing I do like about the Stellar software is that is very simple and straight forward to use. Upon launching the software you simply select the drive you want to scan, I found that you need to have deep scan select and then hit go and the software will work its magic.
I found it took around 12 minutes to complete all its scanning phases of the card to find the files to recover. Bear in mind this will be much longer if you are scanning larger drives such as hard drives or large memory stick.
To recover your files you simply hit the Recover button and it will ask you where you want to recover your files to. Select or create a new folder and then select recover. At this point I would go make yourself a nice cup of coffee as this took around 20 minutes for this 32GB memory card.
The result was 1058 .NEF Raw files recovered along with 1058 matching .JPG files. This included all the original 44 Raw files and more which open perfectly in Lightroom and Photoshop as if they were never deleted. Performing the same test using the MAC DiskUtility Tool to format the memory card I got the same results and the software fully recovered all of the deleted files.
For my final test I wanted to check how good the Stellar Recovery Software was at recovering video footage from my DJI Mavic 2 Pro micro SD card once it had been formatted. Hopefully I will never have to use it but it is something that I do regularly so it will give me peace of mind if ever I make a stupid mistake in the future.
So I thought I would give it another go and swapped out the camera SD card for the Micro SD card from the Mavic 2 pro with exactly the same outcome, it totally messed up the software and I was back to square one where it could not recover any files.
I have since sent two emails to Stellar explaining the problem in-depth and asking them if they had any thoughts on why this could be happened. I have had an acknowledgement to my emails explaining it is taking them longer than usual to look at the issue due to Covid19 which I think is perfectly acceptable and will update this post once I get a resolution.
Installation: For ease of installation I would say that both Stellar and EaseUS are on par with each other and its simply a case of running the downloaded file and then dragging across the .dmg file into your applications folder like any other piece of software. Disk Drill has an extra step in the setup where you have to configure your security settings to give the software access to your hard drive. There is a link in the setup window and takes just seconds to do so it certainly is not a deal breaker, just an extra step.
Overall Speed: Well EaseUS just edges it for me over Disk Drill and again there is not a lot in it but I found EaseUS marginally quicker. Stellar Photo Recovery came 3rd in my tests taking the longest to deep scan the memory cards and recover the files overall.
I really wanted to like Stellar Photo Recovery but it just did not perform well on the micro SD memory cards at all when trying to recover my Mavic 2 Pro video footage. At a sensible price with a beautiful simple to use interface Stellar could be a winner if they manage to resolve my issue with the Micro SD Card and I will update this post accordingly once I get a some more information.

2. Recover SD card files with EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard
Suppose your files were lost from a SD card, and there are no results after normal scanning, then you can turn to EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard.Simply connect the card to computer and run the program for a new scan.
Q1. Does this program always recover files successfully?
A. No program can guarantee that it recovers lost files every time, because every case is different from the others due to various operating environments and the way files were deleted.
However, as long as the data is not damaged or overwritten, EaseUS MobiSaver will definitely recover the lost files for you.
Q2. How much time does it take to finish a scan?
A. Generally speaking, it will be finished within 10 - 30 minutes, but it also varies due to different devices or amount of data. Normally, connect the device correctly and stably can speed it up.
Q3. What are the differences between free version and full version?
A. The free version can only recover one file (contact, messages, documents, etc) at a time, while the full version can recover as many files as you want.

If Disk Management can't shrink the partition as far as you want it to,it's time to go with a third-party program. I recommend EaseUS Partition Master Free. It's simple and, as the name implies, free. And it can shrink your partition until there's almost no empty room.
Thankfully, I found a free and fast solution in the form of EaseUS MobiMover. This free utility lets you copy individual albums to a Windows or Mac system, though you might need just a little help with the finer points.
EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard Technician brings a professional and smart data recovery service to you and your customers. With its help, you can rescue important data whether it is lost due to deletion, formatting, hard drive corruption, or virus infection without a hassle.
