RE: [Leica] Exposure Meters

Rick,

I agree, the Polaris is an excellent little meter.  It is actually a copy of
the Sekonic 308 and Polaris has a spot attachment available should one need
it.  It may be the best bang for the buck around in meters.

Phil:

I have the Polaris.  I hardly hear anyone talk about it, but it has been
great.  I've had it for a couple of years since it first came out.  It was
very inexpensive, light weight and consistant.  Once I calibrated it against
another meter, they have been virtually identical since.

By the way, if you can come to our Michigan LUG meeting, I'll bring it with
me.

Best,
Rick
