I went to try a sample of the above referenced bin at a store today to check if the eye relief was enough. It was close but not enough.
The eye cups comprise two rubber protectors, the outer one folds back but not far enough because the inner one still protrudes, but not by much. (In the past I have improved useable eye relief by spot gluing an "O" ring to the end of the barrel of the eyepiece.)
I tried to see if the eyecups unscrewed but they did not move easily but the young assistant was looking worried so I did not persevere.
Would some one please check for me if this is possible or enquire at Birdfair and find out if spares may be purchased?
Many thanks.
