Heres the story:
shot digital using Canon 1ds. Shot Canon RAW only. Transferred from CF card to laptop. I could see thumbs developing in file browser, so kept shooting. Got home, opened browser and watched in horror as thumbs turned into scrambled colors as the browser kept processing thumbs. Clicked on scrambled pic to open in Raw file converter but picture is scrambled colors. I can view the thumbs in Microsoft paint or with the canon utility/converter software but when I try to convert I get a error image about corruption. How can these applications show a complete thumbnail but be corrupted that they can’t be converted? CF cards have been overwritten several times so can’t go back and try and recover off them. all I have are the files on a harddrive.
Puzzled and possibly in trouble…

Because your camera embeds a JPEG thumbnail, and they may not be affected by whatever corrupted your TIFs.

There are several programs, such as Breeze Browser, that can extract the thumbs, but I do not believe they are large enough to be even an emergency replacement for the originals.

Sorry. Really – it hasn’t happened to me yet, but I have the nightmare vision about twice a month "did I accidentally overwrite…"
