They grab more light than a 50mm glass yet they don't have the weight or bulk of larger, \"giant\" binoculars. This high-power model will please anyone desiring extra magnification for closer, more detailed images than standard binoculars permit. Suddenly, more star clusters resolve into stellar pinpoints, lunar craters burst with geologic fine-detail, and the Andromeda Galaxy reveals more of its core and dust lane structure! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The lenses and high-grade BAK-4 prisms are fully multi-coated to permit the highest light transmission possible. The aluminum barrels are internally glare-threaded to ensure rich contrast and eliminate ghosting. Images are sharp, bright, and wonderfully vivid. Moderate, 9x magnification allows a wide 5.0??? field and 7mm exit pupil. Extra-long 26mm eye relief. Good hand-holdability. Weighs 2 lbs. 10 oz. Contributing to this binocular's comfort factor is its long eye relief. No pressing the eyepiece housings into your eye sockets to get the full field of view!

Thanks to Tele Vue's innovative 2-element design, now you can get superb sharpness that matches the performance of Tele Vue eyepieces. The Televue 3X Barlow (#TE-BLW-3125) is an achromatic system, but the design gives better color correction over its competitors at the edge of field. Optically corrected down to f\/4 for use with fast f\/ratio reflectors, the 3X Barlow is parfocal with Tele Vue Plossls under 32 mm, and provides excellent performance with any scope type.\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Televue 3X Barlow - 1.25-inch is \u003cstrong\u003efully multi-coated, with blackened lens edges\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003einternal anti-reflection threading\u003c\/strong\u003e for excellent contrast. Its 3.75-inch length allows this  Barlow to be used in star diagonals and what's more, the barrel is threaded for standard 1.25-inch filters. As a unique feature, the 3X Barlow has a safety groove. Have you ever dropped a thumbscrew in the dark? No more. It has a captive thumbscrew which helps hold it in place should the focuser thumbscrew accidentally loosen! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Because the Tele Vue 3X Barlow - 1.25-inch measures 5-inches in length, it is marginal for use with star diagonals. With physically long eyepieces, this doesn't create an optical problem, but be aware an inexpensive diagonal may not keep the combination secure. The weight of a large eyepiece and this barlow can cause the diagonal housing to become loosened in the visual back and allow it to shift or turn without warning. Proper prior knowledge can avoid these problems. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e As Al Nagler says:  \u003ci\u003e\"Tele Vue's Barlows were envisioned as magnification windows.
