"Isnt by its very nature ANY digital camera a meter in itself? All you would have to do it set it for manual shutter speed and aperture based on a guess and then fire shots and use the LCD to adjust speeds or aperture until you get a good exposure/histogram. It also seems to me that this method would be more accurate than any mode relying on the TTL meter....It would work for macro/manualflash/etc as long as the lighting didnt change or in the case on on camera flash, the flash to subject distance didnt change for the actual shot you want to take....

Sadly, I hadn't thought of this. More sadly, I had thought of using the histogram as a meter but never did think of just looking at the image to see if its exposed well. Could one of the D-cons try this and tell us if it works well enough to use on regular basis?
