The easiest formulae to avoid these common but frequently committed follies is checking the status of the photos clicked as against the photos that you are intending to click later i.e. its advisable to be forearmed and forewarned before you click further photos and save the older ones to the other storage medias that are available in the market.
Unconsciously and carelessly resorting to some of the express features provided in the advanced Digital Cameras can wreak more havoc to your photos than manually deleting them. Provided below are some basic tips which can bring down the incidence of photo loss to a great extent
Maintaining the media properly
The media that is being used for the purpose (be it the storage medias on which you store the pictures for future references or the drives that are used for transferring the pictures from the Digicams to the computer) should be maintained in optimum condition.
Manhandling the media by exposing it to fire and moisture, keeping it too near to the bonfire or oven, letting the camera screen rub against rough surfaces and sand should be strictly avoided under all circumstances.
Carrying media in overstuffed suitcases can harm them physically and render them unreadable. Medias kept near the fire or heat does not damage the pictures but the memory cards may get distorted and this might stop the card reader from recognizing the memory card. It is advisable to wrap the media in clothes and place them in the middle of the suitcase. This would offer some degree of protection while traveling. Never leave the memory cards in an elevated temperature environment.
Features that kill
Advanced features enable us to perform many tasks that would have been rendered impossible without them but its of great import to remember that accidental overwriting of photos stored in the camera memory cards is a common mistake that accounts for a large percentage as far as deletion is concerned. To avoid this from happening take a little time out and back up your photos in PCs, laptops, CDs or DVDs for future references.
This would keep your photos safe and invalidate any chances of overwriting.
Contrary to what most people believe, reformatting is capable of deleting photos from print orders and also the pictures that are protected. Reformatting erases all the files that are stored on the memory card, which can only be retrieved by an image recovery software company.

Always keep the digital cameras and the medias in padded and watertight cases in order to keep them safe and secure. If you have lost your precious photos due to the onslaught of any of the aforesaid causes, consider getting a photo recovery done from Stellar Information Systems Ltd.
