The one big exception to this is medium format systems. Numerous systems
put the meter in the prism because the camera comes with a waist level
finder. Rollei, and the more expensive Hasselblad systems, offer metering
in the body of the camera, which gives in-camera metering with waist level
finders (a real treat), but these cameras are very, very expensive.
