Abstract
A digital photographing apparatus with a display unit on a front surface thereof and a method of controlling the same. The method includes setting a self photographing mode; generating countdown information for self photographing; determining a subject distance; and displaying the countdown information together with a captured image on the display unit when the subject distance is shorter than a reference distance. Thereby, a photographer may see a preview along with the countdown information so that a desired self-photographed image may be acquired.
