What do you think SEKONIC Dual Spot F L-778

[Justyjust]

I need a light meter to use for my film photography, it will be used for my outdoor work spot meter and home studio flash.

I wanted a meter with a 1 degree spot and flash meter, I don't want to pay too much.

Most of the spot meter/flash are top of the line and pricey I cannot afford one of them thus seems a good option.

What do you think of the SEKONIC Dual Spot F L-778 ??

The L778 looks nice. It was on my list but I wound up getting a used L558. I did not see any L778 for sale when I was looking for a new meter a couple years ago.
The L778 is actually bigger and heavier than the L558 and it does not have the incident function.

Thanks for the help it looks like I don't have much choice other than paying out for a L558 as all the others seem to only have 5degree accessories .
