How many of you guys are using light meter? I'm thinking to get one, any advise?

 

Thanks

There's a current discussion about this: Who Still Uses a Handheld Meter

The Leica Q3 is available for pre-order at B&H Photo Video and Adorama

I still use a handheld light meter. I have several, but the most used are my Weston Euro, and my Sekonic 758DR. The Sekonic has a PocketWizard controller, and thus makes easy work of studio flash.

I use one occasionally, but I now use an app on my iPhone rather than carry another device. MyLightmeter (free) or MyLightmeter Pro. I paid six or seven dollars for the Pro version but the free one is adequate as well.

I use one all the time. Takes the guess work out of difficult shooting scenarios. For a lot of M stuff I use the Gossen. When I'm using strobes or flash I have the sekonic touch screen as was recommended above. Its a great thing to have in your camera bag.

Yes. Check the other thread, no need repeating everything so soon.
