Yes, I think there should be a lots, at least Sekonic has some.

More flexible? may be, but if people are happy with external meter, there
will be no meter built inside camera. To me external meter is much slower to
use, not to mention it is not TTL. In macro mode TTL metering is a must,
otherwise you have to calculate the light lost for high magnification works,
just to slow.
