Leica M9 files lost?

->> I shot a bunch of photos with my Leica M9 over the weekend.
The files appear on the card, but they also say they're zero KB and won't open. Am I screwed? I'm 99 percent sure it's a bad Sandisk card, because I tried another card and it reads and writes files just fine.
Is there any chance in hell I can recover those photos from the bad card? |

->> I downloaded the trial and it recovered everything but what I needed. I got a funky error when I first tried downloading the card (I can't for the life of me, remember what it was).
Bottomline? I threw the card out. I suspect it was one of the cards that went through the wash several times. Looks like a zero K file is indeed, zero K.
David — The M9 is a cool camera, but the buffer sucks. Leica built a beautiful little camera and then stuck a Commodore 64 processor in the SOB. The Leica glass, however, is so very nice. |

| ->> Chris, I'm sure it's wonderful, I'd just never have the $$$ for one. I'm only six correct numbers in the Powerball away. |
