Saving to my internal memory works fine. Saving to the SD card receives a "Media not Found" error message and no photo is saved. I can view and use all other photos and apps that are saved on my SD card, so it is loaded correctly. Anyone have a clue what the issue is here?

Welcome to Android Central! SD cards can become corrupted, or they might just be simply defective. What brand is it? Did you get it from a reputable retailer, or a random seller on eBay? How old is it? Lesser brands and older cards are more susceptible to failure or file corruption, while cards purchased from questionable online sellers are more likely to be counterfeit.

Unmount the card (in Settings>Storage), remove it, and insert it into your computer. Then run chkdsk to look for bad sectors: http://forums.androidcentral.com/am...guide-using-chkdsk-fix-corrupted-sd-card.html

This one is interesting, that there are some photos on the sd card but it won't allow new stuff?

Can you pull the sd card out and put it in a computer to make sure stuff is currently on that sd card? Don't reformat it if it comes up. If there is nothing on the card, then put the card back into your phone and then reformat it.
