Does this come with a Barlow lens and if so what magnification is it. 2X, 3x, 5x etc Expert Answer

The OpticsPlanet Exclusive Celestron AstroMaster 114EQ Telescope w/ Celestron Motor Drive 93514 does not come with those lenses.

You would just add them to your cart with the telescope before submitting your order.
