Nov 18, 2002 12:21 | #16 Ummm, I measured the light *before* the bee even got to the flower! As it was a sunny day, and the conditions didn't change all that much, one reading was good for several minutes... Remember, the incident meter doesn't care what the subject is, that is one of the reasons it's so accurate! • Wedding Photographer - Sydney and Wollongong

Its just fun to tease a bit at an old thread coming back to life. Which dont get me wrong is sometimes a really good thing as sometimes the information is still relevant and could still help someone. Not really sure thats the case with this one but yea.... [Gear List | Flickr

A real time RGB histogram in Live View would be even better. The better dSLRs all have built in spot meter evaluation anyway if its a compositional matter.

There are some who believe the spot meter in a say Sekonic L-758DR are better than those in any DSLR... [Gear List | Flickr
