When you flip the switch to playback mode, the camera will take you to the last image that you captured. By pressing the display button on the back, you can change the amount of information displayed about the photograph, including no information for viewing them on an external source.

Toggling the zoom lever to the Wide angle position brings up the thumbnail index mode with 12 images displayed per page. Continue to press the control and you can bring up 30 images per page or the Calendar index. This allows you to quickly sort though saved images.

Toggling the zoom lever to Telephoto allows you to enlarge the current image up to 16X in 2x steps. At any point you can use the 4-way selector to scroll around inside of the enlarged image.
