Good meters. They're selenium, so the acceptance angle is a bit wide, but then selenium more closely matches the response pattern of the average emulsion than does CdS, SPD, or gallium arsenide, so it has some advantages, too. The postwar Leica-meters can normally be purchased for $20 or so at many camera shows. And they're readily repaired: Quality Light-Metric in Hollywood does a fine job.
