the first one could well be (it came right after a .apple file), but all the other hundreds of small 512Byte files? or the large 16GB file?

I sent you a pm.

I went through the recovered files today, renamed them all, and just to be sure, used "diff" to compare the recovered files with the originals I still had - all the files I tested were identical! Thank you again!

I just got back to my laptop, photorec has been recovering since 2:17 hours... now it's filling up my hard drive with thousands of .gz files, which it didn't do before your last update!

Wow! It seems to be working!
I'm just running a test, and the first files (also the one that I sent you) are being recovered fully.

If you want, I can take some more sample ...

I'll try right now. But it will probably take a while... last time, photorec recovered about 11GB.
Thanks already.

OK, I just found some more info on this:

the original files are recovered in 3 parts:
txxxxx.jpg - about 10KB
fxxxxx.jpg - about 800KB
fxxxxx.jpg - about 20MB

(original - about 21MB)

I noticed that the size of the second preview image added to the size of the main recovered image is pretty much ...

Hi,

I recently had an SD card die on me while I was copying the files from it.
On it were about 6-8GB of photos and videos taken with a Nikon D800.

I was able to recover all the files, I think, but noticed something strange:
The thumbnail is saved as a separate file (yes, I know that's normal ...
