Hi, you might want to consider the L-608, which is a combined zoom-spot, ambient, wide-area-reflected and flash meter. I have one and it's very good indeed, my one quibble being that's it's probably rather more than I need if I'm just taking one Leica M body out with me. http://www.sekonic.co.uk/l608.htm
It's also quite expensive, but I discovered when I was shopping around that, at the time, the L-408 was only very marginally cheaper, presumably because they wanted to shift the L-608. I've no experience with the Pentax Spotmeters. --- Bob Saturday, November 30, 2002, 3:00:34 PM, you wrote: > Yesterday I expressed my inerest in purchasing a Pentax Digital Spotmeter. > Today I ran across some info on the Sekonic L408. > Does anyone have any experience with both meters? > Is a 5 degree spot sufficient for landscape work, or the 1 degree spot is > that much better? > I like the fact that the L408 is an ambient/flash meter with many nice > features. > Jeff.
