The “big SD card” is called a CF card. Yes one of the pins is bent

I used to work with someone at a camera store that would try to fix this with a little coffee stir straw. If you can imagine getting the end of the bent pin into the end of the straw and using that to straighten it. With it being the pin on the end, you’ve got a decent chance of being able to fix it.
