|Anyway, I lost my light meter and need to buy a new one.  Yes, I do need a
|light meter from time to time... ;) 
|
|My requirements:  Small, compact, lightweight, easy to use, digital.
|
|Any suggestions?

Aha - digital is the clinker - otherwise I'd suggest a Gossen Luna-Pro.
They are fairly easy to come by, are a "hold in the hand" meter as opposed
to a pistol grip, but also can do 5 degree and 1 degree width measurements
with the "SLR" type adapter for the front. It also had a darkroom enlarger
attachment. I think they generaly go for around $45 at camera swaps (at least
I saw them in that range at the Denver camera swap earlier this summer).

Plus, you can still get batteries for them (via a Gossen supplied 
adapter).

THANKS
