Favourite G2V Reference stars

I've been looking at the G2V star lists and I see that they are referenced by SAO #cat number or RA and DEC.coords

It seems as though it would be quite difficult to find these stars as the lists I found dont refence the constellation or provide charts to where they are located(Yes the easy way); though I did come across that Alpha Centauri A is a G2V star and is well positioned for us downunder folk.

Is there a favoured G2V star for us folks downunder to image for working out RGB color Ratio's?

I tried to find some location reference using SN6 but had no luck.

If Alpha Centauri A is a good enough G2V canididate; all is good; thought I'd check with those that have done this already.
