You must be using a Mac, the .trashes file is where the Mac OS puts
deleted files on a memory card. Spotlight-V100 is part of the indexing
system., and no I didn't know this before. I'm a DOS/NTSF Wienie,
Google can be your friend...

A friend asked me to photograph a dance class he was teaching tonight.
The view through my K100 was horrible, when I got home I tried to
clean the viewfinder but it seems to have some sort of nasty film on
the back glass of the eyepiece. Either that, or something was eating
at some anti reflective coating (is there one?) on it.
I tried cleaning it with lens cleaning solution, but that did no good
whatsoever. This, mind you, is not the camera that is missing the
rubber eyecup.
I haven't tried cleaning it with serious solvents, like berryman's B12
chemtool. I suspect that would cause more harm than good.
After class, Ted was copying my raw files off my SD card and something
went wrong with the transfer of the files from the K20.
Some weird files showed up on it:
ls: USBC\033␀␀␀.␀€␀: File name too long
total 384
-rwxrwxrwx 1 lrc staff 4096 Feb 3 22:44 ._.Trashes

Fortunately a bit of research found a program called photorec which
seems to be recovering the data.
