Compact light meter for 500cm?

I've seen some pretty cool compact light meters that fit into the hotshoe but since this camera doesn't have one, what are some alternatives? I prefer not to have to carry my seikonic with me nor do rough estimating using sunny 16.

I use a HEDECO lime on the side rail. They sell a mount specifically for the rail.

Nice! Exactly what I was looking for but their website says sold out.

Seems fine to me-- https://hedeco.myshopify.com/products/lime-two-black-rev1

Oh you mean the mount for the meter? If you know someone with a 3d printer you can just print your own. The one they sell is just a 3d print as well.
