Orion's 4-element 5x Barlow will give your 1.25" telescope eyepieces a 5x power-boosting magnification boost!
Perfect for high-magnification lunar and planetary observations and astrophotography, as well as telescopic study of the Moon, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn
Enjoy 5 times the power while maintaining comfortable eye relief and edge sharpness of longer focal length eyepieces
This high quality 1.25" 4-Element Barlow Lens from Orion will provide a 5x power-boosting magnification boost to all of your 1.25" eyepieces, giving you exceptional image quality. This lens' superior features and 4-element design minimizes chromatic and spherical aberrations while preserving image sharpness and contrast.
This Barlow lens will yield better color correction and less distortion than its 2- or 3-element Barlow counterparts, since the Orion High-Power 5x Barlow is equipped with a sophisticated, 4-element, fully multi-coated lens design. Contrast is maximized due to the blackened interior and blackened lens edges that eliminate any internal glare or off-axis reflections. Your power-boosted observations will be optimized in regards to sharpness, clarity, and brightness, giving you a wonderful viewing experience.
You're able to use this Barlow lens with longer focal length eyepieces if you want to experience a more comfortable view with better eye relief and edge sharpness than a lower focal length eyepiece. Considering the fact that lower focal length eyepieces usually have a very small eye lens that makes it difficult to peer through, using a longer focal length eyepiece in the Orion High-Power 5x Barlow will allow you to enjoy twice the magnifying power while maintaining the comfortable eye relief and sharp field edge.
A brass compression ring inside the High-Power 5x Barlow lens helps to keep any inserted 1.25" eyepiece both free of scratches and thumbscrew gouges. The lens is fashioned with a rubber grip exterior that provides a sure grip and the 1.25" barrel features a safety recess to keep the Barlow Lens from falling out of a focuser or diagonal if the retaining thumbscrew becomes loose. This Barlow's barrel is also threaded for easy use with 1.25" Orion filters.
