Hi Niels.
Making a disk image sounds like a great idea, and if you are familiar with this system of recovery I guess it is fine to go on using the card, as a novice in this system of recovery (or someone who knows things can and do go wrong) I would recommend keeping the card aside until you are through with the recovery just in case there is a problem with the creation of the disc image or......?
Hi Drolo.
I suspect that a good number of us have accidentally formatted a card, (been there got the Tshirt :
) there are enough recovery solutions available to substantiate this!
Some solutions are more competent than others dependant on whether it was a quick format (which I think our cameras do) or a full format, a choice via the PC OS and for SD cards in camera.
I can't recommend any software as the software I used seems to no longer be supported by (or is that 'doesn't support') Windows 10.
Good luck.
Cheers, Graham.

I'd immediately make a full backup of the entire card to a single raw disk image file using dd for windows (if your using windows)
see: http://www.chrysocome.net/dd
You can the mount that image using PassMark OSFMount as read only. Not only you have a backup, but you are also sure that no data gets overwritten. You can then start using the card again en take your time in investigating the raw disk dump file.
