We have plenty of them. From my "unbelievable list of tools for
data recovery" and regarding that you are trying to recover files
from a camera: "photorec". It's in the ports collection. In the
same context, "magicrescue" is worth mentioning. If they all
fail, consider using TSK.

Note: Do _not_ do ANY writes to the card! Mount it -o ro if needed.
Make an 1:1 copy (using "dd_rescue" from ports), work with that
copy. Everything that slips through fat fingers could reduce the
chance of a successful recovery session. I know it. ;-)
