You folks forgot the Sekonic L398 Studio Deluxe. The one and only
classic. No cheap battery, but no battery. Incident light only. Well,
reflective light mode only under bright light. And changing meter range
requires to slide in or out a separate slide that could get lost. I
recommdended the L208 Twinmate to a friend for easyness of use and light
weight, but for myself I disliked its plasticy feeling. The L398 is an
old fashinoed bakelit brick, better saying bakelit "egg" that is a
perfect match in style to any Leica, Rolleiflex or Hasselblad.
