Camera Center on board?

[ryrysmom14]

I was just wondering if there is a camera center on board where they can download your memory cards onto a disc like at WDW. I have a few memory cards, but afraid I'll run out of space! If they do have a center, does anyone know the cost and how it works- can you keep going back and getting memory cards downloaded once you get the disc?

Thanks!

There are two kiosks in Shutters (Deck 5 Aft) that you can do this. It's only open when Shutters is which is any 'At Sea' day and when the ship is not in port.

I'm not sure on the cost as I have brought ample memory cards not to have to use it. I'm guessing it's around $8-$10 per CD. Once you fill the disc with one memory card, you have to get another. It does not allow to pull the photos from multiple cards prior to burning the CD (this is the same at most other places off-ship). They do have some memory cards for sale there also but they only offer one or two types of memory cards that fit mostly the digital cameras that they have for sale.

One thing you can do is purchase a larger capacity memory card for your camera. The prices for the higher capacity cards are so low (under $50) these days it's easy to have one handy for the camera (i.e. for a 7megapixel camera with a 8GB memory card you can get about a 1500+ photos on it on high resolution. I have a canon powershot SD1000 with a 8GB secure digital card and I can get 2500 photos on it).

I think the CDs run more like $14 per CD.

That sounds about right.

For $14.00 just go and buy a 2GB SD card.

I have a 2 GB card as well as several other smaller ones. I think I might just invest in a larger card b/c I plan on taking lots of pictures! Thanks for the replies regarding the camera center- nice to know there is an option onboard in case I need it!
