Hi Kristian,

I'd like to second what everyone else has said so far, great information. The 
the best of the Leica meters that fits in the flash shoe and couples with the 
shutter speed dial is the MR-4 however beware that they all require mercury 
batteries. They are better to use than any other shoe mount light meter, 
otherwise I'd just use a good hand held meter.

For a picture of the MR-4 see:
