Product Description

Use this Barlow Where in Particular Where You Need a Shorter Length

1

It's an ideal accessory for high-power lunar and planetary observation, as well as lunar and planetary imaging when used with a solar system camera or webcam. Use this handy magnification-boosting Barlow for up-close views of Mars, ringed Saturn, or to study craters of the Moon in exquisite detail.

Very Short Construction

  • The extra power boost provided by this Barlow Lens is especially helpful when used with short focal length telescopes that would otherwise not be able to achieve the desired magnification with very short focal length eyepieces.
  • Use this Barlow where in particular where you need a shorter length. Sometimes the total accessory length with eyepiece, adapter or camera can be rather long. The optical path of Alstar 1.25" 4-Elements 3x Barlow Lens is only 43mm.

Insert the 1.25"4-Elements 3x Barlow Lens into your telescope's focuser or diagonal, and then insert any 1.25" eyepiece into the barlow lens, gently securing it in place with the knurled set screw grips. Then adjust the telescope's focus wheels to enjoy triple the magnification of the eyepiece used.

The 1.25" 4-Element 3x Barlow Lens triple the power of any 1.25" telescope eyepiece. The lens elements are fully multi-coated with anti-reflection coatings, and edge-blackened to provide maximum light throughput and optimal image contrast.
