For white, if you are shooting jpegs, a little minus on contrast and -2/3 or more on exposure compensation for the capture helps me. You can always brighten the image in post if it's too dark.

Watch those flashing highlights! Don't be afraid to go minus...the film is free!:D

Thanks, Dave.

In your image editor load a white bird...go to 100%...lower the contrast and see how it effects the image. Too much contrast will ruin the fine detail in the white feathers.
