Before taking pictures (CLIE Camera), recording movies (Movie Recorder) or recording sounds (Voice Recorder)

It is recommended that a test picture is taken and saved on your CLIÉ handheld or storage media. View the results of this test before you start taking pictures. Similarly, it is recommended that a test movie and test sound is recorded, saved, and played back, before making a full movie or sound recording.
