Lost files! Need to recover!!

I don't know how, but files on my compact flash card for my digital camera are no longer visible. I tried running chkdisk and this is the bootlog it created: Checking file system on J: The type of the file system is FAT.

One of your disks needs to be checked for consistency. You
may cancel the disk check, but it is strongly recommended
that you continue.
Windows will now check the disk.
Volume Serial Number is 58CC-9972
\DCIM first allocation unit is not valid. The entry will be truncated.
Convert lost chains to files (Y/N)? Yes
3072 bytes in 3 recovered files.
Windows has made corrections to the file system.
 
47816704 bytes total disk space.
9216 bytes in 1 hidden files.
1024 bytes in 1 folders.
10987520 bytes in 279 files.
36818944 bytes available on disk.
 
1024 bytes in each allocation unit.
46696 total allocation units on disk.
35956 allocation units available on disk.
 
 
It's obvious that there is still 10MB of files (although there weren't 279), and i'm wondering if there's some way to recover that. I can't seem to find any "FOUND000" folders either... Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Greetings,
 
Active@ undelete might help you. IMHO it has the most powerful algorithm available. This tool saved me some time before so you can give it a try. Really recommended.

If you try recovering under DOS Active@ uneraser works great.

Hello,
 
DataRecoveryWizard utility can help. Speaking about me, it was
easily able to restore lost partition, so I think you will
also find it quite useful. Really recommended tool, give it a try.
