Product Description

There are three accessories in one with the Celestron Universal Barlow & T-Adapter! You can double the magnification of 1 with the 2X Barlow when you observe in visual mode. There is one 25" eyepiece available to you. This telescope accessory comes with a T-adapter that allows your telescope to be transformed into a giant telephoto lens with perfect focus. For the best results in Tele-Extended Photography, pair the Barlow with the T-Adapter to get double the magnification of prime focus. (T-threads are purchased separately) These threads accept specific T-rings from each camera brand.

Questions & Answers

How can a higher magnification be achieved using different eyepieces?

This is Chris. There is a problem with your question. It is called the Universal T A single adapter can be used for two purposes. An observational and photographic method of observing the stars. As a result, the T-value is useful for astrophotography You need an adapter to attach your camera to the visual back of the telescope, which provides a focal-length adjustment This imaging system is used on planes. This telescope does not have an occular (eyepiece). In spite of this, the built-in Barlow lens effectively doubles the focal length of your telescope (i.e. A 1000mm focal length SCT is equivalent to a 2000mm focal length Visual observing can be done with any of the adapters that accept a This occular has a 25" diameter. It is removable for either application to use the Barlow lens. To photograph the night sky with eyepice projection, consider the Tele-Galaxy II A premium version of the Extension Using this will allow you to take advantage of most of the features in A projection lens is made up of 25" occulars. There is no need to worry about the optical speeds of this approach being It would be nice if the aperture was 30. Consequently, it can only be used to detect very bright objects (planets, moons,

If a bottom element of this barlow can be threaded on directly to the eyepiece's 1 then it is already threaded. To get 1 inch of 25" thread, you need to cut it into thirds. An enlargement of five times. ?

I am absolutely certain that the ring attached to the lens element screws into the filter thread at the bottom of my Celestron lenses and any others I have. The same thread did not appear on the Park lens.

Do you know if the Gsyer telescope will work with this?

In this case, one of the following will work. I would say yes, if they are 25" eyepieces.

Would I need to buy anything else to go In the manner of How do I get a hold of ring #93419?

I'm here. Using this T ring, you will require the T Ring that corresponds to the make or model of your camera if you plan to mount a DSLR camera to your telescope. There is no need for a T ring if your telescope is not going to be mounted with a camera.

I really like this product, it saves me money and the results are great
4/5

It has been the best purchase I've ever made. * B r efore the cons, a few minor ones. With the DSLR camera attached to this tripod, I can take photos The adapter will not focus if it is not used with a Barlow. For it to focus, I have to use the Barlow. The downside here for me is not significant since I always use the Barlow with my DSLR, otherwise magnification is too low, so I am not concerned that it does not focus at lower magnifications. Instead, I am concerned that it focuses perfectly at In addition there is another area where I am not satisfied, namely that the focuser adapter itself fits a little loosely. I feel as if it might fall off with the weight of the camera Although, the truth is that the camera hasn't fallen off yet, I've even moved the telescope from one place to another with the camera still attached. There are some significant pros to consider. It is one of the finest structures in the world. With this Barlow, any regular eyepiece functions as a magnifying eyepiece. It just screws on to the eyepiece and doubles its magnification. At first, I was actually tempted to buy another Barlow only for eyepieces since I believed it wouldn't work (even though I knew it was compatible), but I decided to give it a shot and bought this one. I made the right decision, saving money at the same time. In fact, I thought that the quality of the images would definitely degrade somewhat when using this on regular eyepieces because of its price. To date, I have not noticed any degrading of any kind. Without the Barlow, they are just as crisp and beautiful as they always were. In addition, although my camera does not focus without the Barlow (as I have mentioned), when it IS used along with the Barlow (which is always) I am able to focus on close ground objects (500 feet or It isn't what I anticipated, but I can now take pictures of not only stars (from the primary use), but even close-up images of birds and sea life Observations of surrounding Andes mountains (review written from South America, Ecuador). The T-Shirt I received was a true "2 in 1" product, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a T-Shirt The owners of their DSLRs will need an adapter. The grade I would have given it is It would be a 5/10 from me if there were no two cons mentioned, but Celestron could work on those to make it a perfect 5/5. Please see PS. This product was used with the following equipment Orion XT6 Dobsonian Plossl eyepieces with 25mm and 10mm focal lengths The Sony Alpha A55 DSLR camera features a T-Frame lens Place on mount.

I find this to be very useful
4/5

seems to work fine. The piece that screws into the bottom does not. Whenever it is attached, I can never really focus on anything as effectively as I can when it is detached. The same is true for using it on eyepieces. Aluminum seems to be a very good material to use other than that. I use this on my Celestron 127SLT right now. The recent "Hunter's Supermoon" was quite pleasing to me from the camera, and I managed to get a few decent shots. I am new to astrophotography, but I'm pretty sure that I still need to find out how to get planetary images. The ones I get are sort of fuzzy blobs If you view with your naked eye, the image will be much clearer.

The Celestron Spotting Scope does not work with this adapter
3/5

If you use this with the Celestron 52305 Regal M2 80ED Spotting Scope, you will have problems focusing! This is what Celestron has to say about the "Regal M2 20-Series" ED glass and XLT coatings make the 60x80mm ED Angled Spotting Scope Celestron's premiere spotting scope line, so you would think a Celestron product would work with a premiere Celestron scope, but it doesn't. No matter whether it has a Barlow lens or not, the lens will not focus. The reason for this could be the angled design of the scopes, which does not allow for enough travel to focus the adapters. Aside from that, the adapter came with no documentation at all. In my opinion, this is a totally useless product That is, at least in this context.

I ordered this to go with my Celestron Nexstar 8 telescope
4/5

It's a good, but not great, budget priced option. Although the lens works and the build quality is pretty good, I am not blown away by its quality. Although good, I wouldn't call it When I use it, I see some distortion. I like this picture, and it isn't bad, but it's not as crisp as when looking directly through As a result, I can say I am satisfied with the camera for the price I paid, but I would not purchase it if I wanted maximum sharpness.

It can be used both as a telescope accessory and as a magnifying glass
4/5

The Nikon S1 and Orion 4 require this form of flange to be connected. Newtonian reflector with a 5 inch diameter. Keeping in mind that the T adapter is only a partially complete solution when attempting to connect a camera On the other hand, there is an adapter that is necessary for the T mount lens to be used on the camera. A new lens is attached to the adapter and then threaded onto the T. lt is possible to remove the Barlow lens so that it can function as a T adapter without any This can also be used for simply doubling the magnification of any single lens, similar to what the Barlow lens does. Optical field of view is 25 inches. A versatile solution!.

A CELESTRON purchase is a purchase that you can be confident in
5/5

Celectron IS VERY POSITIVE, HAS VERY COMPETITIVE PRICES, AND IS VERY COMPETITIVE IN THE AREA OF TECHNOLOGY. Those are just a couple of the many reasons I love Celestron! There are also a wide variety of add-on accessories for all the products, starting at a stronger scope all the way to an electric GPS with auto find and navigation. The focus.

This adapter is a nice addition for the Because I believed I would not receive one with the accessory kit I had just received, I bought this T Adapter/Barlow
4/5

It turns out that I was incorrect. This is now my second of these cards, one that I got from the KT and one that I got from
The threading on my Nikon adapter was a bit hard to get started, but after getting it going it seems pretty nice. It is only the lack of a bottom protector that I am complaining about. Although it still looks good, the lens needs to be changed.

When I use my iPhone, I am able to take good pictures
3/5

The Celestron Astromaster 70 and my Nikon D5300 are being used with this. Despite this, the Astromaster 70 does not offer enough focal adjustment to bring the moon into sharp It is impossible to view the moon and photograph it through the DSLR as the focus wheel bottoms out before the moon is completely in focus. As the sky has been cloudy lately, I haven't tried it on any other celestial bodies yet. It is difficult to take good photos using my iphone, but with its normal eyepieces I am able to get good ones. Perhaps with a different telescope I could get a better view of the moon.
