“Hi, I have an old digital camera, and it will be sold on eBay.com. Before selling it to other person, I want to permanently delete all my photos. Is there any way to shred the photos to prevent them from being recovered by data recovery software?”

Before you sell your computer or digital camera, you’d better permanently delete your private photos, such as family photos, Children photos, selfies, etc. But, after you delete the photos and empty the recycle bin, the deleted photos still can be recovered by data recovery software.
