The Orion Shorty-Plus 2x Barlow Lens is a popular accessory among amateur astronomers. Here are some key features and aspects of this Barlow lens:

  1. Magnification: The Orion Shorty-Plus 2x Barlow Lens doubles the magnification of your telescope's eyepiece. For example, if you use it with a 10mm eyepiece, it will effectively behave like a 5mm eyepiece (10mm focal length multiplied by 2x magnification).

  2. 3-Element Design: The "3-Element" refers to the optical design of the Barlow lens. This design typically helps minimize optical aberrations, providing sharper and clearer views compared to simpler Barlow lenses with fewer elements.

  3. Shorty-Plus Design: The "Shorty" designation indicates a shorter overall length compared to standard Barlow lenses, which can be beneficial for achieving focus in telescopes with limited back-focus (distance from the focuser to the focal plane).

  4. Versatility: Barlow lenses are versatile accessories that allow you to effectively double the number of magnification options with your existing eyepiece collection. This makes them particularly useful for observing a wide range of celestial objects, from planets to deep-sky objects.

  5. Build Quality: Orion is known for producing reliable and durable telescope accessories. The Shorty-Plus 2x Barlow Lens is no exception, offering robust construction suitable for regular use.

  6. Eyepiece Compatibility: It's important to ensure compatibility between your telescope's focuser, the Barlow lens, and your eyepieces. The Shorty-Plus 2x Barlow Lens typically fits standard 1.25-inch telescope focusers and eyepieces.
