if you want to use metering wirelessly with the sb800 there are two ways..

definitely using CLS (wireless TTL) or the A mode on the sb800 but u have to dial in aperture and iso. the second way i've never tried though...

if u have to ask more questions, the answers would probably be in the manual (at least the first two questions can be answered by the manual).

turn the sb800 on to SU-4 mode

and be sure that the SB800 sensor if facing you when you shoot ..

hmm actually.. i just read the post again.. he said "for meter reading"

then like that just use manual and trigger the flash with the trigger button on the IR trigger while standing at the subject rite....? (with the light meter in hand)... weird question actually..
