The software serves as a DIY recovery tool in all photo loss scenarios such as deletion, formatting, corruption, malware-attack, etc. Stellar Photo Recovery supports recovery from memory cards, SDXC, SDHC, microSD cards, etc., inserted in various devices DSLR, CCTV, drone, or dash cams from Nikon, Canon, Sony, Panasonic, Canon, Olympus, DJI, Parrot, etc. Using the software, you can perform SD card recovery from all famous brands such as SanDisk, Kingston, Sony, Samsung, and others.  It also lets you add a new file type with a unique extension for recovery. The tool scans your drive and finds lost files that can be recovered. At any point during the scan, you can save the scan information and resume it later.

Additionally, to fasten the recovery process, you can select and scan a particular drive/volume or location and the type of data you want to recover rather than scanning the entire system. Stellar Photo Recovery can also recover photos from drives encrypted with Windows’ BitLocker tool.

The software is also available in two other versions – Professional and Premium. While Raminfotech Photo Recovery Professional can also repair corrupt photos, including RAW images, Stellar Photo Recovery Premium can repair both corrupt photos and videos along with the recovery feature.

3. Disk Drill Photo Recovery App

Disk Drill by Cleverfiles is an efficient paid photo recovery software with intuitive GUI and advanced user-friendly features. Its Windows and macOS versions recover your deleted photos from SD cards, HDD, SSD, pen drives, flash drives, and more. It can undelete photos from formatted and corrupt hard drives or removable media using NTFS, FAT32, exFAT, Ext2, Ext3, Ext4, HFS+ file systems.

You can filter the scan results based on file size and last deleted duration, such as 1 week, 1 month, 2 months, 1 year, and so on. Like Stellar Photo Recovery, it has an impressive grid view and sorting feature. Additionally, the software recovers deleted videos, audio files, and documents.

The multifunctional Disk Drill not only recovers but also searches for lost partitions; provides data backup by creating disk image; data protection via Recovery Vault, and shares SMART health status of your connected disk.

Disk Drill offers free photo recovery up to 500MB. It offers a comparatively expensive license key with a lifetime upgrade at $89. With a single-user license, you can install Disk Drill on up to 3 computers.
