Question

Is there a way for me to retrieve my pictures from a digicam i accidentally pressed format?

Answer 1

no.  if the card was reformatted, all information on the card is erased.

Answer 2

doomed. sorry.

a tip, always carry an extra couple of memory cards for your cam. that way you'll never run out and you'll be prepared for unexpected shooting.

at these ridiculously cheap price you can get plenty nowadys.

Answer 3

If you have not recorded any new photos with the memory card, there's a chance of recovering the photos - try one of the file undelete/recovery software programs:

In most cases, you can download a free trial version to try out before you decide to buy...good luck.

Answer 4

Nope...sorry...but once flash memory is formated, it's gone for good.

Answer 5

You might be able to - I've been able to get pictures back from reformatted SD cards but not xD. Try the free app at the link. Just for fun I tried deleting all my pictures, reformatting the card and then taking a couple of new ones - it still managed to recover my pictures!

For some reasons YA! isn't allowing me to post links!  Try googling for "PC Inspector Smart Recovery"
