Re: Suggestions Wanted for Incident Meter

Shel:
Been using a Sekonic 358 for mostly flash, though I used to use it to double-check in-camera reflective meters in the field. It's quite reliable and very useful for checking light with Dyna-Lite M1000X power pack and 2040 flash heads and wirelessly triggering everything with the optional RF module Sekomic usually sells for an additional $25 right after you buy the meter. Hook up a Pocket Wizard and presto! Reliable wireless studio or outdoor flash metering!

I keep a Sekonic 308B as my Leica Domke Satchel meter. I have Minolta Flashmeter IV and an older Sekonic studio meter but for street work and general carrying around in my pocket meter I've been very pleased with the 308B. It will also do cord and cordless modes as well as reflected by sliding diffuser dome out of way. It's smaller than a pack of cigs and uses a single AA battery. Also, its power-up phase is pretty rapid.

I'm looking for a simple, small, accurate, durable incident meter.  I know
that small is relative - don't want a real tiny one, nor one that clips on
to the camera, but something comfortable to hand hold that can slip easily
into a pocket of the small Domkle satchel.  Don't need or want
multi-function with lots of bells and whistles.  Looked at a Sekonic L-398
and L-508 today.  Both seem OK wrt size and simplicity.  What else is out
there that might do the trick?

Thanks!
