Just tried a set of sun glasses not the best to do a trial with but thats the best i have. They seam to be both ok with the sunglasses but i think the sunglasses would be a bit bigger that normal wearing glasses. Hope this helps.

Hi Nightwalker71,
I can do you a deal: I can give you the Vortex Diamondbacks 9X36 for £100..inc P&P (your limit?) I think that's a good deal...these will WAY out perform the Praktica's hands down. Bet you'll get no one of bino knowledge here on BF..(BirdForum) that recommends these. I'm pressing the sale, but, quality is top! :t:

Look around, you can do better than the Praktica, which may in fact work, but...

And in this price class, do not buy any 10x32, 12x25 etc. They are nearly useless. Including Bushnell H2O.

Well, always try before you buy! The RSPB holds many bin testing events so that may be useful.
Do keep us up-to-date on your decisions!

Cheers for the offer, but, being a novice I wouldnt purchase without trying as I would want to compare models to see which suits me best.
I'm sure these are first class and I hope you soon sell them on.
