Not sure if this can help but:

I don't use flash myself, but I do have the Sekonic flash master L-358 which I
use for incident light metering, and I'm very happy with it.

Some friends of mine use the L-358 for flash metering and they're happy with it.
As far as I know the L-358 is as cheap as it gets :-(

Greetings

I am planning to do some still life and product photography. The set up I
have is - D70 + 105 AF Micro Nikkor. I have a 50mm AF Nikkor normal lens as
well. I also have an SB 600 and two small slave flashes.

I am fabricating a sort of light table with acrylic sheet for backlighting.

The suggestions I need from you are:

Do you feel SB600 plus another SB600/SB800 will do the job or should I
spring for strobes? The strobes most popular here in India are Elinchrome
Model 23 and Elinchrome D-Light.

If I go for strobes, would I need a flash meter or can get away with the
histogram. If I need a flash meter I would like to hear from you on
recommendations for a low cost flash meter.

I am basically an amateur and so cannot spend too much.

Any suggestions most welcome and thanks in advance.

Regards

K. Ashok
