Looking very seriously at this Sekonic L-758 Cine:

Can anyone comment on their expenenices with it, or what they use?

We use the Sekonic L-758C exclusively.

Here is a great blog from Ryan Walters on best use of the meter:

It helps us do location scouting as well as helping on set. I would highly recommend having one.

As soon as I got one, my work improved noticeably. Highly recommended. I don't even have the cine version, just a plain old 558 that I got for a steal on ebay. $150! It still has many more features than I'll need.
