To quickly navigate through stored images, you press the Index button (AE lock button in record mode), which will then display an index of the last 4 images capture. Pressing it again will bring up nine thumbnails. You use the 8-way controller or the control dials to navigate through your saved files.

Here you can see the Zoom or Magnify display option. It allows you to examine still images more closely to inspect for critical sharpness, etc. To activate this option, press the Magnifying glass button (AF point selection button in record mode). Each time you press the button the image is magnified more until you reach the maximum of 10x. At any step you can scroll around inside the image using the 8-way controller. Rotating the Quick Control dial allows you to jump to the next or previous image at the same magnification level/position.

Your movie files can also be played back in-camera (full screen). You will see VCR-like controls to control playback. If you want to share these files with friends and family, you simply connect the 7D to your TV with either the standard A/V cables of an optional HDMI cable (sold separately). When viewing movies back in-camera, sound is heard through the built-in speaker, and rotating the main (front) control dial adjusts the volume.
