Hi David,

Very nice write up, thank you for submitting it! A question - do you feel the eye relief on the Vixen is suitable for eyeglass wearers?

Thanks

Thanks Tom. This eyepiece is quite comfortable to use with glasses with the eyepiece's eye cup retracted.

Nice Review David!

I found it quite interesting. You definately addressed the various aspects I think most readers would want to understand.
