Very importantly if you lose data on a memory card take the card out of your camera and do not use it for anything else. Just stop using the card immediately.

What happens when you delete a picture on a memory card?

When you delete a photo, the photo does not get removed from the card, instead that space would be marked as FREE to occupy new photos on it. When you take a new photo your camera saves the photo into one of the free space, on top of the old deleted photo.

Your old photo doesn’t disappear from the memory card until a new photo is put on top of the old one. Even if your card reads ‘empty’, all the old photos are still there, just not easily reachable.
