I don't use it much any more

It works like it should (3x zoom) - of course it distorts the image, but you can see your image much bigger than without it....

Great with the basic lens

Right now we only have the 26mm lens that came with our Meade 90ETX.This 3x Barlow was the first add-on lens that we bought - and we're glad that we did.Images magnified with the 26mm + 3x Barlow remain crisp and well-defined.I can't wait to try this baby out with some higher power base lenses....

Useful, but not a miracle-worker

This lens does what is says - it triples your current lens' magnification and makes things look much closer.However, do not expect miracles from it.The image is not quite a crisp and clear as your regular lens.You also have to re-focus after adding the Barlow lens, and it is a little more difficult to focus.Overall, it is a good lens but a stronger eyepiece might work even better....

However, all things aside, I would HIGHLY recommend this item to any astronomer wishing to increase their enjoyment of local (solar system) viewing as well as longer range viewing.Extremely...
