A "light meter" is most likely an incident meter, to be independent of the subjects reflectance, which is a very good thing for accuracy (however it is metered from the subjects position).  It probably can also read flash intensity, which is a good thing.The meters in cameras (cell phones or DSLR) are reflected meters.  At least the DSLR reads the angle corresponding to the lens in use, which is more accurate.  And the DSLR meter is a lot more than an afterthought.  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
