EOS M5 How to recover pics showing as "Unidentified Image"

[PaulHoltham]

I have a Canon EOS M5

In a batch of 300 photos about 30  are showing as Unidentified Image and showing Raw +? 

I think I must have accidentally  pressed the  dash ---on the JPEG Image quality  menu

There is nothing wrong with the card

Is there any way I can recover these lost 30 photos. The simpler the method - the better

Any PRACTICAL help gratefully received

Thanks,

Paul

Do you mean you cannot download the images from the SD card?

I can download on to my laptop

An icon appears  but then cannot open the image.

Sounds like you now have only the raw photo's which your viewer can't show. Try a different viewer or use a raw converter, if you use Canon DPP you can create the exact jpeg's your camera produces.

Do they display on the camera LCD
