I've done some viewing with my new 10x56 SLC both day and night - wonderful! - but I seem to notice a bit too much blacking out when I look around. When I back off the eye cups a little, it goes away. I don't wear glasses so the eyecups are turned all the way out. But I'd like to rest the eyeguards on my brow, closer to my eyes. Especially while doing astronomy in a reclining position.
I can order the eye cups for the 8x56 SLC and swap them out - it's got 3mm more eye relief and would appear to solve the problem. Is there anything wrong with this idea? I'm assuming the 8x56 eyecups would come up 3mm higher?
