Digital camera reviews of Meade 128 3x 1.25-Inch Barlow Lens

Digital camera Review: Definitely gets you closer
Summary: 4 Stars

I first used it while observing the moon, which all of a sudden got a heck of a lot closer.

The field of view changes a little when using the barlow, so that takes some getting used to. Also, I had to slightly adjust the focus after inserting the barlow -- in other words, you can't just sight in an object with a standard eyepiece, drop in the barlow, and then be in perfect focus. Not a big deal.

I debated whether to get the 2x or 3x barlow. Perhaps naively I went for the higher power ("real" astronomers advise against the abuse of power), but right now I just have the stock 26 mm eyepiece, so I don't think I exceeded my limit (with the barlow I get to 144x).
