What's wrong with a Peterson?

I’m not a huge fan of the strobe visual ... just isn’t as intuitive as a classic readout for me.

I use a Korg Pitch Black. Vvvery smooth display as it comes on to pitch. Vvvery readable in the dark or bright sun.

| Turbo Tuner by Sonic Research. My favorite by far but it is difficult to program offsets. It has the fastest response time and is the most pitch sensitive of any I have ever used. |

My favorite, and the one I still use even though I've got a StroboFlip that I like, is this Seiko that I got from b0b in the forum store. But it has been discontinued.
I LOVE that it gives a numerical reading, in cents, of deviation from ET.
I just ordered a used Seiko from Ebay as backup. I have no difficulty remembering how many cents off of straight up I detune and it suits me better than making programs.
The biggest negative is that it is not backlit. And that can be an issue. If I could design a perfect tuner (for me), it would be this, with backlighting.
I sure wish they'd bring this back.
