Subject: [Leica] The Sekonic 'do it al' meters are pretty cool!

Peter-
    I use the 1 degree Pentax digital and find it outstanding. However, I've
heard a lot of great things about the new Sekonic "do-it-all" meters that
perform reflective, incident, and 'zoom' spot. I was just messing around
with a Sekonic 518 (5xx or something like that!) that was barely used at
Newtonville Camera. I think Mike Bard (the person to talk to there) said
someone got it just before the 6xx series came out, that has integrated
'pocket wizard' flash connectivity, and traded back. This used one is also
weatherproof and felt small, but 'beefy' - Don't know the used price, but
you can call him at 617-965-1240 (they have an 800 number somewhere in a
Shutterbug add but I can't recall it) If you call, do ask for Mike, he
treats LUGers that I send his way pretty well!
