Hi Alan,
I use a spot meter quite frequently, probably close to 50% of the time.
The meters I carry are Sekonic L-558, which have incident, reflectance, and 1-degree spot all available.
My concern is that proper use of ZS metering is a complex subject, with many subtleties that can be lost on newbies.
I always recommend starting with incident reading to get familiar with the concept and environmental variables.
Once the student is able to get consistent results, then ZS can be introduced for finer control.
