Works if 
i) you keep the same camera forever
ii) you don’t need to update/upgrade the software you use for processing the 
image files, for instance when getting a newer camera
iii) you like loosing time (and money) on tinkering with hardware, and fixing 
bugs and other goodies ...

Else, long term peace of mind and easiness of use are worth a few bucks IMHO …
