    Most likely you have to send it in.

    I think if you just deleted the files they are still there and just the pointer is gone. If you format then it’s all gone gone.
    I could be wrong but this is how I understand it.

    Well, kinda. It depends on how you formatted. If you zeroed the disk using p2 Formatter, the yes, it’s gone. If just a quick format and didn’t reuse the card, the directories/forks are erased but the Media is still on the card, and could be hard to recover. Disk warrior isn’t enough. Try DriveSavers.

    Yes, you have to send to drive savers anyway.

    They are awesome, by the way. I have used them on other hard drives, but not p2. Make sure they can handle it. My guess is they can.

    You could also contact Panasonic Service in the NJ office. They may charge you but I have seen them pull back a formatted cards previous recording. Email off line and I will give you the contact.

    Best,
