Taping interview
 
According to requirements, I need to overexpose a pure white background for a close-up 60i interview with my XHA1. What settings should I consider?

thanks

* first you have to make sure the person you are interviewing is not wearing white.
* try to separate the person from the white background as much as you can.
* give the white background more light than the person as much as 2 F/stops.
* turn your zebra on your camera and focus manually on the person.
* make sure no zebra on the person and a lot of zebra in a white background.

Hope that helps
