— 6 reviews — Page 1
This 1.25" Celestron 2x Ultima Barlow does what Barlows do and does it well. Specifically, it halves the effective focal length of your ocular. To do so, any Barlow lens reduces the amount of light reaching your eye to only 25%--this is a mathmatical equation and there is no way around it.

This Celestron Omni Barlow 2x is a reasonably price quality Barlow lenses that doubles your magnification with clear clean images of whatever you're looking at. I use mine with a Baader Zoom and it works very well in my Newtonian Scope. You know a Barlow is good when it up the magnification with limited degradation of clarity, so I highly recommend this Barlow. Don't settle for the cheapies on eBay when for a decent price you can own this quality piece of hardware.
Pros:
Clear
Cons:
None for me
Best Used for:
Tele. or Spot-Scope
Would recommend: Yes
