Not too Expensive and is a work horse, I think just about everyone I know shoots with one.

What's the most you're willing to pay, and would you be happy with used?

Or, look on eBay/second hand stores for the venerable Gossen Luna-6 or one of it's companions. These were the last word in meters when they were new and are still hard to beat. They go anywhere from $50-200 used, depending on model and condition.
