I have an old Gossen Super Pilot light meter that appears to be in very good
physical condition. I'm a casual user of a digital SLR and have never used
a light meter of any kind. Surprisingly, there are several of these
available on e-Bay, one claiming that it is a useful device, the other
considering it a collectable at best.

It's pretty cool looking so I won't toss it in any case, but does it have
any practical usefulness in today's world?

About the only big factor in newer meters is ease of use. If someone
is comfortable using those old meters, they work as well as anything
made today.
