5X Barlow Lens 1.25 Inch M42 Thread for Telescope Astronomy

Helps looking at stars

Great magnification boost to your telescope.

This barlow only delivers 2x magnification. The quality appears to be in line with all of the other generic 2X barlows on the market, but the fact that it claims to be a 5X barlow when it only delivers 2x magnification means that it does not live up to it's specifications.

I received a 2x Barlow lens when description stated 5x. Quality for price is fine. It’s definitely not the best. It does function as it should. There is chromatic abrasion, but I figured there would be when I purchased. It’s not bad though. Would have gave 4 stars if it had been a 5x like it stated.

Doesn't work. It changes your focal point in the telescope. I can't a single thing to come into focus when I use this. Waste of time and money to buy.

Best out there!!!!

This small magnifier adaptor made such a huge difference in the distance that my telescope could go with clarity. This was the best money I spent in a long time and made a huge difference immediately. I don’t endorse things ever but this is a purchase that I can’t believe how good it worked

I tried this using a t mount adapter and only found my calculated focal length increased from 120mm to 220mm. Just not worth it.

de donne rien de plus

This is actually a bit too much for my telescope, but it's a decent plastic lens for the price. Keep in mind this is DIRT CHEAP but works!
