Subject: RE: [Leica] Exposure meter recommendations for M4

I have a Voigtlander clip on meter and I've been pretty impressed with it's
accuracy for general shooting.  In complex lighting situations, a hand held
incident meter w/spot attachment might be nice too.  I would recommend the
Voigtlander, but it is pricey (some would argue not worth the money, but I
suppose some will argue that of Leica as well).  I don't remember where I
got mine.

Subject: [Leica] Exposure meter recommendations for M4


After using an M6 for a year, I just bought an M4 (I wanted to have one 
"classic" Leica). So of course now I need to get an  exposure meter for it. 
What are the recommendations?

I would prefer a smallish one that I could carry around easily, but don't 
know if there is an tradeoff in performance. I am not  into the Zone system 
now, but might be in the future, so the spot meter capability might be
useful??

Anyone one with experience with the Voigtlander clip on meter? Know where 
they are available for sale?
