Does anyone own the Nikon D7100? My manual tells what SD cards are compatible, just wondering if anyone has a preference on the size and speed of the card that they use. getting ready to purchase one.

I have been using 8 & 16Gb Transcend SD cards forever. Never had an issue. You can get them reasonably priced on Amazon. Be sure to get the #10 speed. They have a lifetime guarantee.

It may really depend on whether you plan to use the video function much. I don't, so San Disk 32GB Extremes work just fine (shooting RAW.)

8 and 16 gig cards are fast enough for any one . it's only when your shooting sports or birds in flight that you may want the faster card . when your spraying and praying .

I did have a issue with a card where the remote app. used on my ipad didnot work. Called Nikon and had to switch to recommended sd cards. Worked fine after that.

I use 16 and 32GB, depending on what I am shooting. I like to use RAW + JPEG, and that takes a lot of storage space. As others have said, look for a high transfer rate.

Yes, I own the camera. Recommend San Disk, minimum 16gb, class 10 if you intend to video.

The 7100 takes two of whatever you use. I chose 32GB because I planning an extended European trip and needed the space but since have purchased a laptop.
It's difficult for me to conceive a need for 32GB (times 2), so I would save a couple bucks and buy smaller chips
