Some digital cameras allow playback through the television. But, not all digital cameras allow playback through television. So, when you are going to purchase a digital camera it is better to find out its television playback options.
Not all digital cameras come with a movie mode or though it is fast becoming a common feature. You may also find that some digital cameras at the very top of the range don't offer a movie mode either. Also don't be fooled into thinking that the movies that digital cameras take will be up to the standard of your digicam. At the lower end of the digital cameras market you can find that the movies are shot in black and white. There are certainly a good number of digital cameras where you can't record sound when you shoot the movie.
Movie time also varies between digital cameras. At the lower end of the market you normally get around 15 seconds. The higher end hits the three minute mark. The way that I would look at it is that the primary function of digital cameras is to take great still pictures and short movies that you can shoot are very much a bonus. Watch out as well. Shooting even very short movies can drain the batteries very quickly.
