Do you have one?? What kind? What do you like and dislike about it?

Sekonic L358. I love everything about it. :)

I do, a Courtenay FM3, but I only use it when using my studio lights, my cameras meter is very capable in other situations :)

Thanks Karen and Jennifer.

Do either of you know of a good one that is under or around $100?

I can't say enough how much having a light meter will improve your photography. (not that I've looked at it and think it needs to be improved!)
Sekonics are wonderful light meters but I'm not sure if you will be able to find one for $100, even used. Perhaps older ones but I don't know if they work as well.
I would go on ebay and look around. When you see one that interests you, google it to check out the reviews.
Hope you find what you're looking for!
