Programming Focus Points

1. 

Turn the focusing wheel to set the focus at the 
desired focusing area that is the greatest distance 
from the camera. Long press the 

Far Stop

 button 

until the green light blinks once—this indicates that 
this focus area has been saved by the Lynx. 

2. 

Turn the focusing wheel to set the focus at the 
desired focusing area that is closest to the camera. 
Long press the 

Near Stop

 button until the green 

light blinks once, indicating that this focus area has 
been saved. 

3. 

You can set two more focus areas, if you wish, 
between the Far and the Near points. Set a focus 
area anywhere between the Far and Near focus 
areas in the same way, using one of the buttons 
labeled "

Focus Pt

" in blue type. Set another focus 

area between the Far and Near focus areas, using 
the other button labeled "

Focus Pt

" in blue type.
