Import Failed in FCPX?

My 10.0.8 FCPX is for some reason failing to import on eof my clips it is roughly 47 mins long. I am importing of the camera. What could I do? I am also unsure if this is a FCPX error or my camera error. I use a SONY HXR-NX5 to film. My client is expecting the footage tomorrow so as you can imagine aI am very xtressed and would apreciate an answer ASAP! I have attached the error message that comes up.

Thankyou very much!

Exactly what format did you shoot on the card? Did you mix formats? Dies just this one clip not import, or do none of them? Make a new folder and copy the ENTIRE card camera into it, and try importing from there?

These things happen. I nearly always copy the card and then import. Yesterday morning, I had a shoot and because I had an unusually tight deadline to turn around I suspended my "rule" to save time. One out of eight files failed to import; unfortunately, that file was by far the largest (17 GB) and by far the most important. Very worried about corruption, but I copied the card and all is now good.
