I have not tried identify or convert and will have to test them.
I use ImageMagick and tried many things there but none of them worked.
I did use Jpeg Rescue but it didn't work in my case. It missed many
images. Again, it could be a header issue between different Jpeg files.
I found that my camera's header was different than the one in one
particular program. I think it was foremost. This was confirmed with a
test on a memory card.
All images that were recovered in my case will say that they are valid
jpg images if I just use 'file {image.jpg}'
