Just scroll through the thumbnails in your library then place your finger on your selected image and it will appear; great for searching through hundreds of your holiday snaps. Furthermore, whilst shooting you can also operate the autofocus and shutter release at the same time with just a simple touch.

Both photos and movies saved onto SD memory cards are simple to view in all their glory via any compatible HD-TV with an SD card input. Alternatively, an optional HDMI mini cable can be used to output photos and movies recorded with the DMC-GF2 directly to the TV. Pictures taken with the interchangeable 3D lens LUMIX G 12.5mm / F12 can be experienced in 3D on your compatible 3DTV, offering you a whole new way of experiencing those treasured moments
