[Self Portrait]; [Scenery]; [Panorama Assist] - Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX78 Basic Owner's Manual

Select this to take pictures of yourself.
Technique for Self Portrait Mode
•
Press the shutter button halfway to focus. The self-timer indicator
lights up when you are brought into focus. Making sure you hold
the camera still, press the shutter button fully to take the picture.
•
The subject is not focused when the self-timer indicator is
blinking. Make sure to press the shutter button halfway again to
focus.
•
If the picture is blurry due to the slow shutter speed, we
recommend using the 2 second self-timer.
This allows you to take pictures of a wide landscape.
You can take pictures with connections suitable for creating panorama images.
