GH2 DP6 + White Card

[DevonH]

Hey All,
My set of white and gray cards came in today, and I'm working out the best way to use them as the LCD tends to be off. Would using the false color mode on the DP6 then adjusting the white balance until the card appeared yellow work? Tips on the gray card?

I'm not absolutely sure of what you are looking to do.
Do you want to set the light or the white balance?
for white balance, you put a white card press the white balance button on camera. Done. Or you go with the Kelvin color temps presets like I do.
For the iris, you turn the false color on your scene and check your highlights and lows and make sure everythin fits in the dynamic range of your camera.

Also, your DP6 is not reliable for color, just FYI. (I own it as well)
