You can take a hands-free selfie by setting it on a table and make sure no member of the family is left out of the memories you are making in the upcoming festive season. Using Dual Preview, you can see yourself in the Flex Window so you can make adjustments in real time before going for that perfect shot.

In addition, the Auto Framing feature ensures that no one is left out. You can view and edit shots in Flex Mode before you share them on your social media. The power of this amazing camera is accentuated by AI which brings every photo to life.
