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.

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.
