Grey Card and Photo Paper
Don
I went back to the web search and tried to find material dealing with Grey Cards and Digitals.
Some sites suggested taking images of the Grey Card (I added the white paper). This I did - setting the EV from the G C by making my HISTOGRAM PEAK in the HISTOGRAM BOX line up right in the MIDDLE of the HISTOGRAM BOX. This I did using the EV control and I used the resulting EV (o in this case) to do the G C and white paper. My WB I set at FLUORESCENT DAY WHITE setting. This is just outside a window, but gives good example of the white paper and G C by it - going into shade - plus a bit of skin tones as well. We had hazy bright light.
