Title: Please help! Nikon D700 nef file corrupt
Post by: Episkop on June 06, 2013, 04:09:14 PM
Please Help!

I had photographed a wedding, but didn't realize that some of the RAW files were corrupt because the first part of the folder with the files was not corrupted. I didn't realize this error until I started to work on converting the wedding to JPEG which is after I reformatted the memory card twice and shot two more sessions on it.

Here is a RAW (NEF) file, which is corrupt (Camera Nikon D700): https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2210649/003_9088.NEF

Can you please help me fix this file? I have a total of 550 of these files, I WILL PAY YOU IF YOU CAN HELP ME FIX THIS.

Currently when I try to open the files, they are blank but show that there is like 8 or 9 MB, so there is information on the files but I just cannot extract it.

My email address: lvivyanochka@yahoo.com

Thank you!

I'll take a look at this tomorrow when I can download the file.

Unfortunately the file is all binary zeros, so there is nothing that can be recovered from this file.
