So Panasonic now has (perhaps they’ve had it for a while now) these Micro P2 cards
, that can be used with an [url=http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/801045689-USE/panasonic_aj_p2ad1g_microp2_memory_card.htmlBI=225 &kw=USED&gclid=CPjYkO__3b0CFc1afgodtxkAbg]adapter card:
[/].
The micro P2 cards are an SDXC ("Secure Digital Extended Capacity") format, and cost $355.00 on B&H. The adapter cards cost $139.95, so that adds up to $494.95, a $134 savings from buying a larger 64GB P2 card for $629.00:
So I’m wondering, what are the pros and cons of buying the micro cards with the adapters vs the larger card? I’m guessing durability/resilience of the cards against the elements and wear and tear of daily use, but would there be anything else?

Also, there are 64 GB Sony SDXC cards on B&H that only cost $74.28:

Obviously the Panasonic Micro P2 has faster read and write speeds, but the question is, would they still work if you were to stick one of those Sony cards into a one of the P2 card adapters and shoot with it in a Panasonic P2 camera? Would there be problems shooting on the field, or would the main problems be with mounting them in a nonlinear edit program later?
