You have chance to get back those deleted picture and video files from your Canon digital camcorder, BUT it is just possible. Because if those deleted files has been overwritten by new files you saved in, then there is no hope. However usually overwritten cases are hard to happen as long as the memory card or hard disk has enough volume.

Then, take so called data recovery program to handle the issue and see if you can grab some or all of the deleted files back. you may take a try Wondershare Photo Recovery (also recover videos and music under both Windows and Mac OS).

Photo Recovery (if you are running Windows OS)
Mac Photo Recovery (for Apple Mac OS X)

You should take care - before your files are recovered, do not save more files to the device concerned(do not take more videos or photos) in case overwritten situation will happen.

All right! Be relaxed! Nowadays, the deleted files on a camcorder are not actually destroyed immediately after the deletion or initializing process. They are still there and become invisible. So, act carefully to get these deleted files back:
1. Do not save anything new on this camcorder in case that any new file on it may overwrite your deleted files.
2. Connect this camcorder to your computer.
3. Download a camcorder data recovery freeware to retrieve all your lost files back for free.
This professional data recovery freeware has helped many people around me restore their inaccessible data off from a phone/camera memory card or hard drive. It could be a good choice for you to go on.
Try to read more detailed information of this camcorder data recovery freeware here:

4. Do not save or back up all the restored data on the same camcorder in case of any data loss.

How do you delete videos from your sony handycam DCR-DVD405

This Sony camcorder uses mini-DVDs to record and there are certain restrictions when DVD is used, it is not like videotape. For a DVD-R disc, you cannot delete video once it is recorded because this type of disc is a record once only. Depending on which other disc type you use and how it was initialized, you MAY be able to delete video. For a DVD+RW disc, or a DVD-RW disc initialized in VIDEO mode, you can delete the last scene IF you have not removed the disc and not recorded any new video. For a DVD-RW disc initialized in VR mode, you can delete anytime. And here is how:
Turn on camcorder and press PLAY. Select the video or still image tab that contains the data you want to delete. Touch EDIT. Touch DELETE. Select what you want deleted. The selected scene is marked with a checkmark. Press and hold the image on the LCD screen to confirm. Touch RETURN to go back to previous screen. Touch OK - YES. You cannot recover data once deleted. There is also a DELETE ALL to delete all video or images.
