Sky-Watcher Nomad-5 x5 Telecentric Focal Extender - 1.25″

The Skywatcher Barlow lens Nomad-5 Premium 5x 1.25″ is a high-quality telecentric Barlow lens that increases the focal length of your telescope by a factor of 5. This means that any eyepiece or camera system you use provides five times higher magnification - ideal for observing and photographing fine details on the moon and planets.

The Nomad-5 is made up of a four-element optical system with full multilayer coating (FMC) for maximum light transmission and minimal color errors. The result is a bright, sharp and high-contrast image even at high magnifications.

For visual observation the Nomad-5 works like a classic Barlow lens: you simply place it between the telescope and eyepiece, and the magnification increases automatically. The brass self-centering clamping ring Holds the eyepiece firmly in place without scratches or damage.

For astrophotography the Nomad-5 offers a special advantage: thanks to its telecentric design, the image maintains its sharpness and flatness across the entire field - essential for accurate planetary shots. An astro camera can be connected directly to the integrated T2 thread, while DSLR users can use the included adapter in conjunction with a T2 ring that matches their camera brand.

The solid aluminum housing and precision glass make this Barlow a durable investment for visual observers and photographers alike.
