How bad is that feeling you get when you've lost something, you value and are unable to get at it.
Today I had to try and recover about *4 months* of images for a family member from a SD memory card. That's Xmas photo's, first day at school etc.
Initial symptoms were "Naming Error" reported on the Canon 610. Reported as a E51 error on some models.
I wasn't worried at first, expecting a partition table corruption given the numerous reports, but after the second tool failed to identify any files I was getting really worried.
I tried alot of tools a couple of freeware, but most were commercial trials, but only Zero Assumption Recovery was successful. Probably retrieved about 85% of images back, some were missing, some of them only the thumbnails were retrieved.
Tools that didn't cut the mustard:
"PC Inspector smart recovery", "cardrecovery","flash file recovery", "data doctor recovery" "stellar phoenix DMR".
I'm pretty disappointed at the number of reported issues of memory card errors in a brand I was pretty happy with 
.
Atleast at some people have found a solution that works for them, but if it strikes again, try out Zero Assumption Recovery, the Image Recovery process is freeware.
