Panasonic G7 - Cheap EF to MFT adapters and memory cards

Afternoon all

I know I'm late to the party but I have taken the plunge and bought a Panasonic G7 with the basic 14-42 kit lens. Due to the gloom and rain I can't really get out to play so I'm doing some online shopping instead

Not in a position to buy a Metabones at the moment so just looking at a cheap adapter such as:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Concept®-Adapter-Olympus-Panasonic-Cameras/dp/B00LECYGW6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1457193643&sr=8-1&keywords=ef+mft+adapter

Are there any risks with these that are worth noting? I am assuming there is no chance of shorting the body?

And memory cards have now confused me. I was expecting to have to buy an Extreme pro but the card out of my Canon which is only 45mbps seems to be recording 4K fine; admittedly not tried for very long but to get a feel for the G7 would one of these do?

http://www.amazon.co.uk/SanDisk-Extreme-Class-Memory-Ratings/dp/B013CP3MMM/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1457033561&sr=8-3&keywords=sandisk+extreme+64gb

Just a quick first thought on the G7 - love it!

Cheers Paul
