Pentax Digital Spot for a long time as far as equipment, A modified (aren't they all?) Zone System to determine the exposure/processing.

Gossen Spot-Master. Great stuff.
Downside: it eats batteries, about 1000 individual meter readings with a 9V battery.
But most of the time, I content myself with a really simple selenoid reflective/incident light meter.

Gossen Luna Pro SBC or Nikon FA

I take a shot with my Olympus XA and transpose the setting to my view camera lens.
Sekonic L-608
Gossen Luna Pro
half-ass btzs with Minolta IV F
Sekonic L-508
Most of the time, I start with an incident reading, then spotmeter a few important areas of the scene and combine both to determine the correct exposure.
On a few rare occasions, I have used a Canon DSLR, checked its histogramm and transposed the settings to the LF lens, but I prefer the Sekonic.
hmm it posted the text of the poll before i finished the options ={ please check one or more thx
