Question Barlows and DSLR prime focus

After my first foray into some solar imaging yesterday, I want some more image scale!
If I add a Barlow to the focuser, I assume I can shoot through this with the DSLR - the question I have is, will this muck around with the focal plane to the point where getting focus with the DSLR is impossible - as it is with the Dob.....

Equip - ED80, D70....

Any suggestions on Barlows to use? What difference to the focal plane does a Barlow generally make??

Cheers all....
