English term or phrase: I’m not currently presentable

Kontext: Online-Befragung. Dabei wird den Teilnehmern ein Werbespot gezeigt, und ihre Reaktionen werden mit einer Webcam aufgezeichnet.

You answered that you are not willing to be recorded with a webcam. Why is that?
- **I’m not currently presentable** but would consider this for future projects
- I don’t generally like being recorded in pictures or video
- I’m not comfortable with my video being transferred across the Internet
- I’m not comfortable with how the video is going to be used
- I don’t know how to use my webcam
