1. A method for managing display formats for a peripheral display coupled to an digital imaging device, the method comprising:
- detecting the coupling between the digital imaging device and the peripheral display, wherein the coupling is automatically detected; and
automatically switching a first display format of the digital imaging device to a second display format for the peripheral display in response to the detection of the coupling, wherein the first display format includes a first number of simultaneously displayed still images and the second display format includes a second number of simultaneously displayed still images, wherein the first number of still images is fewer than the second number of still images, the first number of still images is in lower resolution than the second number of still images, and wherein the second display format includes text.
