Mine's a Soligor 1 degree spotmeter (analog display). Depends on what you
mean by "reasonable". You can take a hundred spot readings with it and
average them, if you can keep up with it in your head.  The advantage of
the handheld meter is that you have a narrower angle of sensitivity (a
smaller spot).  The spot meter in the OM-2S/4T is really more of a zone
meter than a spot meter.  You have to learn to use it a little differently
from a handheld spotmeter, but it is tremendously convenient to have it in
the device that is also your camera.
