Surely, if you're got an in camera meter, there's no need for a handheld? Or is there a big difference in 'ambient' and 'Reflective' light meters that im not getting?
If you need to expose for a specific subject, say a backlit face, you go right up to it with the cam, and take a reading, then step back, and use that reading (and of course you adjust accordingly, probly one stop over to put their face in zone 6 for caucasians). How can a hand held do this any better?
