Digital Camera

New cruiser here ... my wife & I will be cruisin' on the Paradise in 2 weeks!!

I understand there is photo-developing onboard. Is there any provision for reading digital camera memory cards so as to burn the pics on CD?

I don't have a laptop, so downloading the pictures will not be possible.

Thanks,

Bradley

Paradise Oct 26

So far I have never come a cross a ship that does digital photos. In Feb this year I filled up a memory stick and had to buy another one on an island. Just make sure you have a lot of memory cards with you. Then you can print them at home. Also the TV in my room had RCA plug (input) so I could look at pictures on the TV vs. on the camera 3" screen.

I hope I have helped you

Thanks Brad. I would never had thought to bring the RCA patch cable!

Brad,
I took my Digital Camera with me on the Conquest in August. Adjust your camera setting to good,and that will give you alot more memory on your camera.
Also, i bought a 64MB card from Walmart.That gave me a total of 308 pics to take. I only used 151. With that, you should have plenty. If you would like to few some of my pics, go to Photo Section, and look under David Westbrook. I only posted a few out of the 151 we took.

Hope you have a great time and cruise;
David

we went on the Gloty on 8/30/03. They had the equipment to transfer memory stick photos to a CD. I think it was about $8.00 or something like that. I had already purchased four memory sticks so I did not need the service. One note of caution with digital media. My Lexar memory stick has a little light that flashes while it is "capturing" my photos. On two occurences while I was taking pictures, the last photo required more space than I had remaining on the memory stick. so the light kept flashing and would not stop. Not knowing what to do I just pulled the stick out of the camera to get ti to stop. I lost around 25 previous photos in an instant. Be careful.

I like to take alot of photos. I have a few year old camera it takes 1.3m photo. I need the full megs (1.3) to have good 4x6 prints. I have 3 memory sticks ea 64meg. I took 725 photos over a 2 week cruise. When I came home I deleted the bad pics. I get them on prints for .29 cents each. at our local CVS drug store. I'm sure the ship will charge around .49 cent or more.

Also njdave. I had that problem when I lost 12 pcs I was tranfering 12 pic to a floppy disc. UGH..............

We take along our laptop computer and download pics onto computer. Then just erase the card and start over.

I havent seen the digital thing on Imagination or Paradise. Good luck!
