Barlow Lenses |
Barlow lenses offer
an easy, economical way to increase the magnification range of your eyepieces, and
Celestron carries an assortment of these highly useful lenses. A Barlow lens doubles the
magnifying power of your eyepiece by doubling its effective focal length. For example, an
18mm eyepiece used with a 2x Barlow lens would have the magnifying power of a 9mm
eyepiece. Its like having two eyepieces in one! If youre looking for an affordable way to achieve high-power viewing of the moon and planets, double stars and even close-up views of terrestrial subjects, a Barlow lens is the answer. |
Barlow lenses mount into either your telescopes focuser or visual back. |
