I’d been using MicroSD cards for years, not necessarily because I went out of my way, but simply that when I need one in that moment, the MicroSD cards were all that Wal-Mart carries that were actually fast. I’ve not had problems with any of them, and they handle 100 mbps from my A7C just fine. However, I don’t tend to ever remove them from the adapter, so this may mitigate potential issues with the additional point of contact. Of all the flash media I’ve owned the past twenty years, I’ve only had a few failures. A 16 MB Panasonic SD card, a Patriot 1 GB Micro SD card, and a 32 GB Kingston flash drive.
Good warning but this is over generalisation. If your adapter has good contacts and fits the microsd really well... it all just depends on the speed and reliability of your microsd. I have benchmarked a few microsd with adapters before and it all turned out good.
Literally the video is just a warning. As many have said and commented. They’ve had issue too and failures. So it’s not just an over generalization. It’s case to case sure. There’s zero point in risking it though. Sd cards are very affordable now.
Correct, it depends on the quality of the microsd adapter. I have tested many, and they are all over the map. Do you really want to trust one is the question.
@@12voltvids do you know which ones that I should trust as a starting-out-videographer? which microSD brands are ideal? What about the samsung ones? Here in SE Asia they are everywhere
@@luckychonk9527 Well microsd should not be used in a camera designed for full size SD cards. Now saying that, and newer cameras only use microSD cards. I use a DJI pocket OSMO camera all the time. It writes 100 megabit 4K video files and I have been using it now for almost a year using a Lexar 633x A1 ultra speed 3 v30 microsd 128 gig. I have also used that same card, also recording video at 100 mbit on my Sony FDR-AX100 using a micro sd to sd adapter with no trouble at all. The same could not be said for a Sandisk 128 gig Ultra Plus card. Both the microSD version and the full size SD card both came up with an error message on both my Sony cameras warning me that the write speed was too slow for 100mbit but they work fine at 60. I don't have any experience with Samsung microSD. I do have one that was sent to me as a promo. An EVO plus, but I have not tried it for 4K recording as it is only a 32 gig card. Too small for what I do.
They will work, but you are compromising your speed. I also use microSD in cameras that require them, and when I put them into an SD adapter and into my SD reader they read painfully slow. I can take it out of one SD adapter and into another and it reads faster, but still too slow. My SD card reader is a USB3 type. I can take the microSD card out, and put in in my ancient USB2 microusb reader and plug that into a USB port on the computer and it reads much, much faster.
Speed depends on device supporting it. Same with size. Larger SD cards generally had smaller limitations. You have to bear this in mind. The adapters are nothing more than wires to realign the pins. If a camera can only support a 32gb SD card it can only support 32msd
The number reason to use micro SD card is when you are out in the field shooting and want to quickly see how the shots / video are turning out on a bigger screen-- a tablet. This is very beneficial for all photogs: the ability to have a lightweight previewing device on hand, instead of hoping it'll look good at home when it's already too late to reshoot. Micro SD's have been doing the same as SD cards according to many reviewers and personal anecdotes. I'm considering getting a tablet to check my video work on the spot-- most tablets have micro slots. USB adapter to Micro would just add another thing to lose/break while connected.
Hmm really a tablet? It depends on the user. Most it seems use actual monitors and laptops. Thats interesting though that some use tablets. That being said, this video isnt saying to abandon micro SD, just be careful thats all.
My Samsung EVO micro sd works fine for continuous 4k video playback with an adapter with read speeds up to 100mbs. Only thing that can cause failure perhaps is that extra layer and dust or damage to the connectors.
I mostly use Sandisk, Lexar and sometimes Sony . I once put a Sandisk Ultra Class 10 MicroSD in a Samsung SD card adapter and used this in a Nikon 3300 to record 1080p @60 fps . This was purely for laughs and giggles, but it worked . I recorded around 5 clips of 10 minutes each . Worked perfectly. Then I formated the MicroSd and put it in my Samsung Galaxy . :)

If you open up the adapter it's just micro pins to normal size pins there is no converting of signals or anything like that just metal traces. So it's not gonna cause slow down or anything. Possibly failure because it's not making contacts if your adapter is super cheap
One of the main issues is that micro SD cards are not designed for lots of writes. They often use lower quality flash, as well as compromises such as triple level flash or quad level flash. They are find if they won't get too many writes over their life, but in a camera where you may be filling them on a daily basis, they will likely corrupt far sooner than a full sized SD card, where they can go with a die size that can get away with 2 bit per cell flash.

Help Me. I got a Sandisk 128 GB SD Card and I took some vidéos on it. When I went to upload the vidéos onto the Computer, I couldn't find it anywhere on the SD Card. It appears on the Camera when I plug the SD Card back in, but it doesn't appear on the Computer or Phone when I plug it in them. ¿What do I do? (The SD Card is a Phone SD Card with an Adaptor)
Actually, it's not the SD Card fault on being super slow on writing but rather the SD to Micro SD converter being used. Most especially the SandDisk SD card converter, the write speed goes down really low. I find that in using Samsung SD to Micro SD converters would be much better and have no problems.
I just got a Kodak Pixpro Az252 and I have been trying to get it to work but I use the adapters and it keeps telling card is not formatted and it won't let me format it because it just pops up and won't let me go to the settings. My birthday is near by and I can't get the camera to work..

They're also not good in a tablet or phone if you're going to take a lot of video and images with them. Micro SD broke. 10 year warranty so no loss except for the images. It's one of the reasons I bought an actual camera.
Hy, I am using Canon Powershot A810 camera, if I wanna use small SD card with an Adapter, it's not working, it says "Memory Card error/memory card locked" can you help me, I wish to to take pictures into the SD card!
Thank you, Sir. I have the exact one you used in this video and was wondering this exact thing for my canon 80D. I’ll stick with my Lexar 64gb SDs moving forward.
What i typed into google brought up this video. DONT DO IT! it had smoke coming out of my camera. and was overheating after being in the slot for like 10 seconds...no thanks. i’m so mad rn .......
All the zNikons seem to be keyed in such a wzy that adaptor will not fit. . And enen though it sounds like a good way to save a buck, its not worth it because there is now a second chance to bend a pin and then the camera may want to format the card for whatever odd reason , it may see the card as corrupt, looking for a specific format.
Never said it was, just a caution. Plenty of people did have issues trying to use the micro SD instead. Others havent had an issue, thats all. So its NOT a fact, just a warning.
Eric: Off topic but this should be of interest...have you tested or do you plan to test the new Commlite Version Electronic Lens Mount Adapter CM-ENF-E(1)? Quote: It is featured with double-side electronic signal transmitting based on the mount adapter from Nikon F lens to Sony E-mount Camera or Camcorders, successfully achieve the functions of EXIF parameter transmitting / Aperture adjustment / AF (mainly for AF-I, AF-S which comes with lens' internal motor) / IS funtion, and highly increases the adapter convenience. Unquote.
all depends on what you want to do, if you want more video focused get the 7D, if you want more photo side of things get the D7000. If you want something more portable and has a good mix of photo/video is a good option.
After I hit Ok to format it clicks off and a black screen pops up. Memory card error appears at the bottom left part of the screen. Camera turns off. Now what?
I wondered about this for so long. Glad to see someone addressed the issue. I never used the adapters though because I felt like it was one more "route" the photos had to go through which could possibly degrade the photos, even the smallest amount. Its not worth it, just buy full sized cards.
In my case works similar. I have two 64 Gb Kingston u3 cards - one sd, other microsd (I bought it for Samsung Note3). MicroSd I keep as secondary card, when Sd is full. No problems. You only must use original adapter, that comes with MicroSd card.
Been Shooting like this on canon for 5 years or so no issues but my second shooter used it on Nikon and it corrupted I feel its easer to find better cards in Micro sd then reg SD
Thanks dude. You saved me a lot of time. For those saying that this isn't true....... He's not saying that the micro sds don't work at all. He's saying that the cameras, at least the ones he's referring to, were not designed for the micro sds. They're designed to be compatible with the full sized sds. I think it's pretty straight forward logic..it's not to say that adapters won't work, it's that the ones that the camera is designed for will work better and more consistently.
Look up the supported sd card formats and the video/photo formats the camera supports and go from there. Typically a class 10 or even v30 are more than enough.
That Why It Not Supported For Any Cameras Canon 1200 D For Example Im Use SD Card Adapter For 1 Days And That Memory Is New But If I Copy On My PC , Error And Camera Too

Probably your camera does not write big files.
I rather keep poppin the sd adapter back and forth from camera to reader and have that fail one day than the actual card in it 🤔

I got a Sandisk 128 GB SD Card and I took some vidéos on it. When I went to upload the vidéos onto the Computer, I couldn't find it anywhere on the SD Card. It appears on the Camera when I plug the SD Card back in, but it doesn't appear on the Computer or Phone when I plug it in them. ¿What do I do?
(The SD Card is a Phone SD Card with an Adaptor)
Actually, it's not the SD Card fault on being super slow on writing but rather the SD to Micro SD converter being used. Most especially the SandDisk SD card converter, the write speed goes down really low. I find that in using Samsung SD to Micro SD converters would be much better and have no problems.
Ok thanks
I have three of these and never had an issue..
If you order these from china though...or the seller did then you have issues.
I just got a Kodak Pixpro Az252 and I have been trying to get it to work but I use the adapters and it keeps telling card is not formatted and it won't let me format it because it just pops up and won't let me go to the settings. My birthday is near by and I can't get the camera to work..
Hi,
I have Arenti P2Q indoor Camera. Can you please confirm what’s the maximum storage memory card I can use with this camera. Is it 128GB or I can use 1 Terabyte card as well. I appreciate your quick answer as I have to order a card for my camera I bought today . Thank you 🙏
I could not get my new trail camera to work with one of those. Now I know why. Thanks.
Dose overcharging the Battery gonna Damge it?
it will eventually but i wouldnt worry about it
The Micro SD Card itself would work just fine the adapter is for putting it in a laptop
Eric Rossi: I I kinda figured that one out myself. Thanks still.
Ty for the vid. I will definitely take your advise.
True
Thank you for this advice, I was looking for reviews, but there were no reviews available, I wonder why ?
reviews on?
Thank you very much for share this.. you save my canon G10. I was using a Samsung 128 EVO plus class 3 micro card with adapter, having the memory card error. I did follow your advice and now is working great.!! I subscribe to your channel.
glad it could help!
hi i did use the one you said not to use and youre right some of my clips wont play on the sd on my camera or pc so its awful thanks very much for tell people about this.
Beginner here. I don't get it. The one you showed that's "bad" and the one you showed that's "good" look exactly the same.
How do you differentiate between an SD and and an SD adaptor? They both look identical.
one is an SD card the other says adapter on it and has an insert at the bottom for a small micro SD card
I use 4 MicroSD Kingstons Canva Plus Go 64gb on my Canon RP (each photo 27-31mb) and it works great! no issues at all.
I bought my wife a Nikon d80 camera and we bought a SanDisk 64gb card and we put it in the camera and the camera won't take pictures it keeps saying it's full. And we have formatted it. Do you know what else we can try
take the card out and see if its locked, theres a small switch on the side of it. If its locked it may be the issue
Great advice...The only devices I use a micro sd card for are my android phone and my Yaesu ham radio, but that is it. I shoot a lot of sports so if I tried using one of these for shooting sports it would drive me nuts!
yeah no way would I ever suggest that for sports lol
I BOUGHT 3 NOW BECAUSE THE CAMERA DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THE 2 SD CARD SAYS( NO SD CARD) (TRY ANOTHER CARD) SOMETHING LIKE THAT I AM BUYING ACTUAL ONES THANK YOU
just curious, which camera?
Hi , i bought a nikon coolpix p1000 and when I put my memory card , camera says all the time " card not formatted " .
Do you know what could happened.
Thanks
I would format the card in camera, see if it helps
Excellent advice.. 👍👍👍
thanks!
Man I only used one once. I was out of space and took the micro out of my phone, put the adapter and shoot for 1 hour. It is slow but I got lucky to have my microsd very fast...still terrible. Thanks for video. :thumbsup:
anytime!
I just recently switched from film to digital and got a Nikon D300 and I do have a question as I can not find an answer. It takes a CF card and I have read that on the D300 it does not like anything over a 16g card (not sure of how true that is), could you offer some insight as to what I should look for? Thanks!
I can not fully confirm but I found this on Nikons site: www.nikonimgsupport.com/ni/NI_article?articleNo=000002637&configured=1&lang=en_US
Why
They're also not good in a tablet or phone if you're going to take a lot of video and images with them. Micro SD broke. 10 year warranty so no loss except for the images. It's one of the reasons I bought an actual camera.
yeah great call to upgrade
I use that adapter and it says card error when I try to format the card? Do you know why it might be
Hy, I am using Canon Powershot A810 camera, if I wanna use small SD card with an Adapter, it's not working, it says "Memory Card error/memory card locked" can you help me, I wish to to take pictures into the SD card!
Theres a little slider usually on the side, make sure thats not locked. But if its still giving issues, just get a regular SD card
Thank you, Sir. I have the exact one you used in this video and was wondering this exact thing for my canon 80D. I’ll stick with my Lexar 64gb SDs moving forward.
What i typed into google brought up this video. DONT DO IT! it had smoke coming out of my camera. and was overheating after being in the slot for like 10 seconds...no thanks. i’m so mad rn .......
sometimes I get a memory card error and I have to format, Maybe I should try a normal SD card and not one with adapter
All the zNikons seem to be keyed in such a wzy that adaptor will not fit. . And enen though it sounds like a good way to save a buck, its not worth it because there is now a second chance to bend a pin and then the camera may want to format the card for whatever odd reason , it may see the card as corrupt, looking for a specific format.
hmm youre like the fourth person I've seen commented who've mentioned something similar. Strange
Thanks - I had this exact question. Good points. I will not do it!
I’ve used them before mostly as a backup if my regular as cards are full
Absolutely NOT a fact!
Never said it was, just a caution. Plenty of people did have issues trying to use the micro SD instead. Others havent had an issue, thats all. So its NOT a fact, just a warning.
Surely, the "Camera" will give an "Error" message, prior to recording, so you will know, that it may not be "Seated" properly.
“Hence” the warning and “why” it may be an issue
Eric: Off topic but this should be of interest...have you tested or do you plan to test the new Commlite Version Electronic Lens Mount Adapter
CM-ENF-E(1)? Quote: It is featured with double-side electronic signal transmitting
based on the mount adapter from Nikon F lens to Sony E-mount Camera or
Camcorders, successfully achieve the functions of EXIF parameter
transmitting / Aperture adjustment / AF (mainly for AF-I, AF-S which
comes with lens' internal motor) / IS funtion, and highly increases the
adapter convenience. Unquote.
At this time I do not trust or value any of the Nikon to Sony adapters.
Whats the difference in class 1 and class 10? like the speed it can write to it or somethin?
speed, buffering, writing etc. Never buy class 1
Question do I need an SD card in my camcorder/ DSLR if I am using it as a webcam?
In the majority of cases, no. However some manufacturers, especially cheaper ones will require one regardless so it's worth checking
Would you chose the a6000 with 16 55 or the Nikon d7000 with 35f1.8 or Canon 7d with 35.f1.8. Why would you chose over the other? Thankz
Thanks*
all depends on what you want to do, if you want more video focused get the 7D, if you want more photo side of things get the D7000. If you want something more portable and has a good mix of photo/video is a good option.
Eric Rossi thank you so much!!
Eric Rossi I won't really focus on video. Maybe some here and there.
dear eric please help me my kodak M863 camera is not reading my sd card , it just keep saying format sd card can you help please ?
Have you tried to format the card in camera?
Eric Rossi yes ive tried formatting it in the camera, but it keep saying format sd card do you think the problem is that i have sd card adapter
After I hit Ok to format it clicks off and a black screen pops up. Memory card error appears at the bottom left part of the screen. Camera turns off. Now what?
Have you ever used CF card adapter with Wifi SD card inside it so you can shot and transfer photos wirelessly to Computer? and do you recommend that?
never heard of anything cf wise. But personally, I dislike and feel any of these eyefi cards are a waste of money.
I wondered about this for so long. Glad to see someone addressed the issue. I never used the adapters though because I felt like it was one more "route" the photos had to go through which could possibly degrade the photos, even the smallest amount. Its not worth it, just buy full sized cards.
and honestly micro sd and sd cards are very similar in price at least on the lower end as well
My camra same sd card got a new sd card all I get card erro
Thanks 🙏
we filmed a video using a dslr with the exact sd you showed and it came out 360p :') should've watched this earlier, thank you
In my case works similar. I have two 64 Gb Kingston u3 cards - one sd, other microsd (I bought it for Samsung Note3). MicroSd I keep as secondary card, when Sd is full. No problems. You only must use original adapter, that comes with MicroSd card.
maybe backup is ok, but personally, I wouldnt trust it
Does a extreme card good for a canon 360?if you know what the canon 360 camera is
Any basic one will do. That would be fine.
Been Shooting like this on canon for 5 years or so no issues but my second shooter used it on Nikon and it corrupted I feel its easer to find better cards in Micro sd then reg SD
Thank you
thank you!! iv gone through 3 of these sd cards and they all gave me problems
glad to help!
Thanks dude. You saved me a lot of time. For those saying that this isn't true.......
He's not saying that the micro sds don't work at all. He's saying that the cameras, at least the ones he's referring to, were not designed for the micro sds. They're designed to be compatible with the full sized sds. I think it's pretty straight forward logic..it's not to say that adapters won't work, it's that the ones that the camera is designed for will work better and more consistently.
someone gets it lol, I mean a fair share understand but people just get stuck in their own ways. Appreciate it
i have a Nikon d3500 and have never used a camera in my life haha. what SD card do you recommend?
Look up the supported sd card formats and the video/photo formats the camera supports and go from there. Typically a class 10 or even v30 are more than enough.
Samir Fakoua thank you!
My Nikon p1000 cannot download photos from the camera on to my computer.
True thanks for your tips
I’ve been using an adapter with a micro SD Card and had no issues until now. All my photos and videos have been wiped. SO ANNOYING!!!
Do u need a memory card for a camera?
yes
That Why It Not Supported For Any Cameras Canon 1200 D For Example
Im Use SD Card Adapter For 1 Days And That Memory Is New But If I Copy On My PC , Error And Camera Too
Does this work for canon m50
Does what work?
