Can't find photos on Xperia V

I have taken lots of photos with my Xperia V and saved them on SD card. Before when I browse the phone on the computer they always then appeared in the folder "Xperia V/SD Card/DCIM/100ANDRO/" but now the folder 100ANDRO doesn't even appear when I'm in the folder DCIM. The strange thing is I can still browse and view the photos I have taken on the phone itself, just not when I browse on the computer. So where are all the images?

I tried changing the settings on the camera so it saves photos on the internal storage instead of the SD card, and the photos take after having set this appear completely as usual in the folder "Xperia V/Internal Storage/DCIM/100ANDRO/". But if I then change back to save photos on SD card, the photos taken don't appear.

When I look at details for a photo on the phone it says it is in "/storage/sdcard1/DCIM/100ANDRO/" but this doesn't help since I can't find such a folder when I browse the phone on the PC.

So where are all the photos on the SD card? How can I find them?

I think the pictures are gone and what you see are thumbnails not the actual file.
