Description

This petite Barlow lens packs a power-doubling magnification punch and features T-threads for secure camera attachment. Use the Shorty 2x Barlow to double the magnifying power of any 1.25" telescope eyepiece for high-power observational stargazing. For example, a 20mm eyepiece inserted in the Barlow lens provides the same magnification of a 10mm eyepiece (20/2 = 10) for close- up views. Using this single accessory essentially doubles your magnification options without buying twice as many eyepieces! Measuring just 2-7/8" long, this short Barlow won't take up much space in your accessory case, but its power-boosting lenses and versatile T-threads will make it stand out as a great performer for both visual stargazing and high-power astrophotography. Thanks to built-in male T-threads, this 2x Barlow can be securely coupled to CCD or CMOS cameras, such as the Orion StarShoot G3 cameras, or DSLR cameras with a camera-specific T-Ring (all cameras and T-rings sold separately). This is an ideal setup for high-power lunar and planetary astrophotography pursuits. You can also remove the Barlow lens element for use as a non- magnifying T-adapter for secure camera attachment to a telescope for prime- focus astrophotography. Whether used visually or for astrophotographic pursuits, the Orion 1.25" 2x Barlow Lens and Camera T-adapter will provide night after night of convenient, power-doubling performance. Weighs just 3 oz.

As advertised. Shipped fast and works great. Originally bought as an experiment piece to see what an 8 inch Dob telescope can do. I took this lens outside and simply looked into the lends, focusing it on a street lamp at night which was across the street. The magnification and clarity is great, and this will be used quite extensively. At the top, it has threads for me to screw on an adapter if I want to. It's main intent was to help see the stars better, and it lives up to that expectation. The second part of the purchase was to aid in the experimentation of taking clear video with an 8 in Dob telescope. That is a work in progress. ... show more
