I don't want to be negative but why buy a nice camera like the D7100 and purchase memory cards that don't fit it or are not made for it. If you have to use an adapter to get it to fit what have you gained. As has been said, adding to the path the signal travels could possibly slow the capture a little but it also gives more locations for problems to take place.

Realistically any slow down should be negligible. However you are creating a longer path for the electrons to travel, and an additional infinitesimally small gap they must jump.



(At the speed of light, another inch won't matter.)

Yes, but in taking an adapter apart I noticed little tiny springboards to help the electrons make the jump!


So would they be competing in a gymnastic or diving event?

If you are a dedicated serious photographer, and want to buy equipment at Walmart ...

Memory chips.....Not all equipment.
I've even purchased chips from Office Depot and Target.

some years ago there was info about that there were confederate sandisks around I would think that B&H would be less likely to have some.

I suppose a phone call to B&H asking if they source directly from Sandisk and if they have safeguarded against counterfeits

I CERTAINLY wouldn't trust an Amazon partner, or Amazon in this situation

Just some thoughts.
