Look in your camera manual: it will tell you the recording format. Then you don't need to try random stuff.

The manual says the format is .MOV files holding:

Picture: H.264/MPEG-4 AVC coding.

Audio: 48 ksps 16 bit Linear PCM coding.

I had the recording option on the camera itself set at 640 pixels and 25 FPS, set also to 'High Comp (IPB)' and not 'Low Comp (ALL-I)'

Does that shed any light? I have already only been searching for apps that restore corrupted .MOV files, not other formats, BTW

Can anyone tell me if there is any way of recovering photos on a SD/MMC memory card after my wife formatted the memory card while fiddling with it.:*

One of the many options already mentioned in this thread might help, otherwise Unformat sd card freeware.
