I totally forgot about the AVCCAM Restorer (although I thought it was only available for PC).

If you do end up going with PhotoRescue, make sure you get version 3

The previous version (2.1) had a limitation on the size of the file it would recover. After just under 700 MB it would truncate the file and move on. After some follow-up support from PhotoRescue, they gave me an upgrade to version 3 to finish the job.

I’m currently in the process of re-recovering the files (using version 3) in their entirety (hopefully).

I’ll provide an update later today.

I tried R-Studio and it did not work.

On the recommendation of Noah Kadner in another forum, I tried PhotoRescue, and that seems to have worked.

Since the Mac can’t natively read an MTS file, I had to purchase a convertor program on top of PhotoRescue. But that’s still better than spending $790 to have someone else accomplish the same thing.

I’ll keep you updated on the final result.
