Bintel Barlows, any experience?

Hello all,

I do have a 2" 2x barlow from Bintel, http://www.bintel.com.au/Eyepieces-a...oductview.aspx but wanted to know if anyone has had experience with the 5x and 3x Barlows? Interested in quality and sharpness of the image.

I thought about getting these to try out so see if they will work with my system for planetary viewing, if they work ok, then I will consider the 5x or 2x powermates from Televue for imaging.

The scopes are a GSO 8"f/4, Skywatcher 8" f/6 and later on a GSO 12" f/5

I don't need to know about image scale etc.. as I have already seen the differences. Just interested in quality etc...

thanks.
