Hi,

I own a 15-45x bushnell spotting scopel and I was wondering if there are any barlow lenses that can be purchased for it. I'm basically happy with the telescope I just want greater magnification...thus the need for a barlow lens. Can anyone assist me with this? Thanks

Hi

The only spotting scopes that will allow you to use a barlow lens are spotting scopes that use standard 1.25" telescope eyepieces. Unfortunately, your Bushnell is not one of them.

If your Bushnell is a 15-45x60 Spacemaster, however, there is an optinal 60x eyepiece, http://www.opticsplanet.net/buey60xforsp.html
