You might like the Sekonic 308. Not expensive, very simple to use, VERY
reliable, uses 1 AA battery that lasts and lasts, it is also a good
flashmeter with or without cord, it is small and very lightweight. I bought
one about a year ago and now use nothing else.

Has anyone any reccomendations for a reasonablely priced light
meter for low light/night photography? under £200.00

I am currently setting my cameras ASA to 1600 (OM1)
and working backwards to get an exposure time and then
bracketing, however i would like something a little quicker for
capturing changes in light eg. sunsets.

I have tried faster film, but when I enlarge to 12x10 the pictures
come out a little too grainy for my liking.

Currently experimenting with Fuji ASA100 and Ilford 125,
but would like to try slide film, and from what ive read, exposure
needs to be reasonably accurate.

Thanks

Eric
