Yes, get a 308S. Or any other meter come to that, because in my experience all meters work equally well, all that you actually get if you spend more money is more features, and maybe an easier-to-read display.To the OP (yeah, there was a question there): sure, get a 308S and chuck it in your bag. As for grey cards these are kind of nice http://www.warehouseexpress.com/buy-lastolite-30cm-ezybalance-grey-white-card/p12332
Someone mentioned a Minolta earlier. I have 2 of them, I use the Minolta V every day and I have a much older one too, the Minolta 2, as backup. I don't use the older one much because it takes button batteries and doesn't have an auto off, but it works perfectly. The big thing about the Minolta's is that if you drop them you just pick them up and carry on using them, with cheaper makes you may have to kick the bits under the table instead - but if you look after your gear and don't employ assistants, cheaper ones are fine.
