I remember last year while at MGM someone was having his pics put on a CD. Can they do this with any camera or just certain ones. I will have a Canon G5, Canon S3, and a little camera my dd uses that has a SD card but I do not know what kind of camera it is. It would be great if I could do this and leave the laptop at home.

I'm not 100% positive but I'd be shocked if they couldn't read any memory card you can throw at them. I think all the cameras you list use SD cards, which are the most common, so no problem.

However, it's cheaper and easier (now and for the future) to just pick up some extra memory. I believe it costs $13 per CD to offload a memory card, and a 2gb card will take three of those CDs. That's $39 - and you can buy a 2gb card itself for $20-25 and have it available for future trips, too.

If you're concerned about multiple cameras, there are sometimes deals on multiple cards. I know that buy.com has a 4-pack of Kingston 1g cards on sale at the moment, for example.
