I agree with Paul.  Add to that the less expensive L308B as an option.
I personally use the L508 and have the L328F as an alternate.  Use to use
Minolta meters
but the Sekonic seem (to me) easier to use.

I'm a big fan of the Sekonic L328.  No flashing lights, just an LCD screen.
It's a quite accurate incident meter, and has the cutest little 5 degree
semi-spot attachment.  It may not be as rugged as some others, but I've had
no problems with it, and it's quite light and shirt-pocket small.
