I'm kinda shooting for something that causes less of a, how do you say, pecuniary impact?
I'd consider giving up the capacitance feature as a requirement and getting a handheld LCR meter instead--far more useful and a few hundred bucks tops for a halfway decent one. I use the capacitance feature on my DMMs because I'm lazy, but in reality, just measuring the capacitance alone with unknown test parameters isn't all that helpful. Eliminating this requirement will increase your options.
As for a 'lesser pecuniary impact', I had a BK 2831E that was really a very good basic service bench meter. Dual display, 20,000 count, TRMS AC and AC+DC, continuity was quick enough, just a few seconds to boot, basic math functions including dB, frequency/period, 20-20kHz AC
current and 100kHz AC voltage, USB connection with free PC software. Pretty much what you need, equivalent to a top-of-the-line handheld in performance but more convenient for the bench and probably less expensive. $350 new and there's a used one on eBay right now for half that.
