Is this with a digital camera?  If so, just erase the image file(s). If
it is an older analog (or digital) video tape type, such as Hi8,
Digital8, or mini-DVT camera, hit rewind and record over the blunder
(or copy the tape, sans-blunder, and bulk erase the tape). If it is a
camera that records directly to a DVD-R, you should be able to copy the
desirable (non-blunder) content to another DVD-R and then trash the bad
DVD-R (the one with the blunder) -- 'cooking' it a microwave works or
just having at it with a hammer or other destructive implement(s).
