An incident meter will not =teach= you exposure and they don't work, or don't work well, in many situations. That's not to say they're not useful, they certainly are.
Shel > [Original Message] > From: Graywolf > The Sekonic website has an article about incident light metering http://www.sekonic.com/BenefitsOfIncident.html that is very useful in understanding exposure even if you do not use an incident meter. I do however recommend incident meters for general photography. they provide for very consist exposures, because they measure the light level rather than the brightness of the object being photographed.
