How to create pure white background?
Sometimes I want to shoot some objects with a pure white background. To do
this I use a large softbox as the background and adjust the intensity to just overexpose. An undesirable effect is a hazy look around the edges of the foreground object. Perhaps it is some sort of lense aberration or sensor effect. In some movies, you can see this effect when they put an actor in front of a strong backlight. The white light seems to bleed around the edge of the actor. What is the correct way then, to shoot objects with white background without this effect? |

Not sure in this digital age, but in the film days, you used white seamless paper, lit it evenly, and made the background 2 stops brighter than the subject. If you went less than 2 stops, it would be some shade of gray - more than 2 stops and it would be burned out. |

You could try the post processing effect my using the Magic Wand to highlight the background, feather, change the Background Layer to Layer 0, then press Delete and Save or use the Paint bucket with White selected. |
