Do you have a tripod ? If not a table or some suitable flat surface that can serve as the tripod. Then set the timner to 10 seconds......press the button....and stand in position before the camera. You may get the shots you are looking for. I do not know if you can set the focus manually in this camera.

Can i use my sony HVR-V1P for self portraits

A self portrait from a camcorder? Just set it on a tripod, get yourself situated and let it run for a few minutes or less.
Then run it though a free program as simple as Picasa. If you don't have it a simple search is all you need to do.
Use the Stop button to freeze frame then use the upper left command 'File' to 'save a copy' and it saves any frame you want. I do this all the time with fast moving subjects (kids, critters, jets etc.) then find the perfect shot in a frame.

Can't take self portrait

I assume it has two cameras in it???? In camera mode (or camera settings) there should be a icon that looks like a little camera with arrows around it. Select this and it should toggle from back camera to front, then it's easy to take self portrait

    Free software download

    You don't need any special software.

    The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.

    Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or, despite what I said first, you can use any photo cataloging program such as Picasa ( http://picasa.google.com ). Picasa can also do a more than tolerable job of editing and enhancing your photos.

    Shooting modes

    What is the best situation to use each of the shooting modes? The shooting modes are described as follows: Program Auto (Factory default setting) Program Auto mode is used for regular photography. The camera automatically makes the settings for natural color balance. Other functions, such as the flash mode and metering, can be adjusted manually. Portrait Portrait mode is suitable for taking a portrait-style picture of a person. The camera automatically sets the optimal shooting conditions. Landscape + Portrait Landscape + Portrait mode is suitable for taking photos which include both your subject and the landscape. The camera automatically sets the optimal shooting conditions. Landscape Landscape mode is suitable for taking pictures of landscapes and other outdoor scenes. The camera automatically sets the optimal shooting conditions. Night scene Night scene mode is suitable for shooting pictures in the evening or at night. The camera sets a slower shutter speed than is used in normal shooting. If you take a picture of a street at night in any other mode, the lack of brightness will result in a dark picture with only dots of light showing. In this mode, the true appearance of the street is captured. The camera automatically sets the optimal shooting conditions. If you use the flash, you can take pictures of both your subject and the night background. Self-portrait Self-portrait mode enables you to take a picture of yourself while holding the camera. Point the lens towards yourself, and the focus will be locked on you. The camera automatically sets the optimal shooting conditions. The zoom is fixed in the wide position and cannot be changed. QuickTime Movie QuickTime Movie mode lets you record movies with sound. The focus and zoom are locked. If the distance to the subject changes, the focus may be compromised.
