Compact Flash to Micro SD adapter

After purchasing my new-to-me D700, the 32g card I had picked up at the same time wouldn't be recognized by the camera. Worked fine in a reader, software and firmware revisions are the latest that Nikon offers (upgraded them myself), camera just didn't like that card. While searching around for decent card prices, I came across this CF type 1 adapter to 2 micro SD cards. It seemed that the adapter was made with the idea that you would use a WiFi style card in the first slot, and an identical capacity card in the other. For $20, I went ahead and ordered it, as several other camera users claimed it worked for them. I've been using it for almost 4 weeks now, and I've had no problems with it, or the 16g micro SD card I'm using in it. The Amazon seller was Komputer Bay, item is Extreme CF Adapter. No affiliation other than being a satisfied customer.

YMMV
Caveat Emptor
Have a great day!

I bought one for $7.00 off Ebay and it works perfect, if your a high speed sport or wildlife shooter buffer time lags.
I shoot still and landscape so not a problem..

check your D700 and see if you don't miss an update. I remember reading that a certain update allowed larger than 16g cards to be used with the D700. Go to nikon's website and see what updates are available for the D700 as well as their procedure to install it. It should solve your problem because I use 32g card with my D700 all the time.

Do you recommend any particular model? (From the perspective of your experience with its reliability / speed -- not looking to promote a brand, per se.)
