Formating an SD card simply rewrites the directory structure. The data still exists and can be recovered, in fact it takes a special effort to actually destroy the data on a digital card. Most file recovery programs that scan for files can recover files you thought were long deleted from your SD card. That is if they haven't been over written but simply re writing the directory structure shouldn't actually overwrite any files.

I've used Recuva successfully before when I had deleted shots on a
card. I don't know that it matters, but the shots were simply
deleted--the card had not been formatted. I don't know whether your
formatting was deep enough that it deleted the data or just the
pointers.

Good luck!

drinking; he can ruin himself with gambling. If he does he is certainly a damn 
fool, and he might possibly be a damned soul; but if he may not, he is not a 
free man any more than a dog.
