pieshops Posted July 14, 2004 #1 Share Posted July 14, 2004 I have seen posts regarding transferring memory cards to CD in ports and on the ship and wanted to get some more info. I will be in the following ports, Juneau, Skagway, Ketchikan and Icy Stright . Does anyone know specific locations in these ports that may do this service and what the cost is? Thanks in advance for the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redphoenyx Posted July 14, 2004 #2 Share Posted July 14, 2004 I was told you can do it on most of the ships for $9.00 a shot. I'm leaving on the Summit for Alaska at the end of the month and I hope the information I was given is correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pieshops Posted July 14, 2004 Author #3 Share Posted July 14, 2004 i had called customer support ( i know that they have no clue), but they told me that only 1 ship has that capability and it is not the vision I just bought a portable writer just in case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budget Queen Posted July 15, 2004 #4 Share Posted July 15, 2004 There is a Walmart in Ketchikan and Fred Meyer in Juneau- both usually have the one hour photo sections that will transfer memory cards to CD's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pieshops Posted July 15, 2004 Author #7 Share Posted July 15, 2004 not sure of the brand, i have not gotten it yet, but i bought a magazine called "digital camera' and they had some ads in there. This one was about 225 dollars, and if you are using a large (1gig) card it will span cd's when copying. the phone number for them is 800-828-6475 and just ask about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budget Queen Posted July 16, 2004 #8 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Nope - not walkable. But Walmart runs a shuttle from the Ketchikan dock area. If you have a lot of time in Juneau- the city bus goes by Fred Meyer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance for the help I just returned from Alaska and saw a place in Ketchikan that seemed to be capable to doing this. They are very close to the dock. I was on HAL and the store was just to the left from the bottom of the gangway, kind of in the back of a large gift shop. There are signs posted.

JohnQ Posted August 12, 2004 #12 Share Posted August 12, 2004 Jahla The one I am using is a EZ Digimagic portable cd burner. It runs about $269 plus more for the card adaptor, car adaptor, ac adaptor, case, etc. I have also seen one called Roadstor if you search under portable stand alone cd writers.

For as inexpensive as digital photography has become, this is kind of pricey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnQ Posted August 12, 2004 #14 Share Posted August 12, 2004 That is why I am borrowing my son's! He and his friends shot over 3000 shots in Mex Riv in Feb and they burned several cds. Little pricey for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
