Here we go again. A DSLR for metering!?
Rubbish!
Use a flashmeter with incident/trigger ops. The expense of a separate meter is part of an overall working studio set up.

Sure, use an incident flashmeter, that works too. However, many people already have a DSLR but not a flashmeter; buying a flashmeter is expensive for a hobbyist. A DSLR works extremely well for metering, it's not rubbish and it gives perfect results if you do it properly. I have quite the collection of chromes to prove it.

No one is forcing you do throw out your beloved flashmeter but just because a process is different from what you personally do doesn't make it wrong.
