I sense you are not comfortable with your glasses.  Certainly single vision  better for photography.    Remember, you can get anything YOU want for better seeing.   See the attached post plus two more in the same thread for a person to grind back a section of plastic lens for fitting into an electric view finder.   This is not your problem, but you can use the source to get cheapie glasses for 8 to $17 USD.   Be sure your prescription is up to date.    Thanks, Gene<a href="http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/read.asp?forum=1041&message=35677584" target="_blank">http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/read.asp?forum=1041&message=35677584</a></blockquote>
