Shoot indoors in a black room with flash for maximum
color control.
> 2. should I care to manage some special color background
> to contrast with the white (the walls are white also, but
> little darker)?
Take the pictures to a black room or hang black flags.
> 3. should I use the autofocus feature of the 650 in the Av
> mode or use the selective measuring one?
You should use manual mode and a handheld flash meter.
> 4. how should I best calculate the aperture and the exposure?
Read it from the handheld meter.
