Omegon 2x Barlow lens achromatic 1.25 inches doubles the focal length of your telescope, giving each eyepiece two magnifications in one fell swoop. This makes the Barlow one of the easiest and most affordable ways to expand your magnification range without purchasing a complete set of eyepieces.
The achromatic double lens corrects basic chromatic aberrations and delivers a sharp, high-contrast image. That makes this Barlow suitable for lunar and planetary observations, where you want to see extra detail in craters or cloud bands. All optical surfaces are multicoated to reduce light loss and increase brightness.
The sturdy metal body with 1.25” mount makes this Barlow compatible with virtually all beginner and medium-sized telescopes. Its compact design makes it lightweight and easy to carry.
Application
This achromatic 2x Barlow is ideal for beginning stargazers who want to inexpensively expand their eyepiece collection. Suitable for the moon, planets and some bright deep-sky objects. For advanced observations and higher optical performance, an ED or 3-element Barlow is a better choice.
