Did you try it with batteries? If so which one(s)?

[@orestes1984]

They no longer make the mercury cell batteries, there is a resistor modification that will report a 1.5volt Akaline coin cell at 1.3volt, or you could use what's known as a "wen cell" hearing aide battery that reports correctly, however the battery life of ween cell batteries is not brilliant. Any decent camera shop can modify your battery for 1.5volt and recalibrate your meter to suit modern batteries, although they may charge you a couple hundred dollars for a full adapter + meter and rangefinder calibration (which is necessary on rangefinders) its a worthwhile investment provided you primarily intend to use the Lynx as your main camera.
