I just tried using dd from the terminal to create a new image - same output file size, but when I zipped it it came to 30MB.

I am somewhat certain that the memory controller has failed - all of this happened after going through a humid butterfly exhibit from a cooler outdoors... there was condensation on the lens, which means inside camera too.

raw .dd file is 16,089,350,144 bytes (16.09 GB on disk)
zipped (through OS X Finder's built-in compressor) is 17,916,942 bytes (17.9 MB on disk)
Clearly there are not 300 photos there (since jpgs don't zip well)!

I've got a PNY 16GB which was fairly new that corrupted yesterday (a family trip to the zoo!). Camera is Nikon D610, but that shouldn't matter.

Photorec goes through the whole card and comes out with 0 files.

I am running Mavericks OS X, using the latest download for OS X Intel.

Here's the report ...
