I’ve an old parks gold barlow which I found works really good with these eyepieces for magnification also, it’s a three element barlow and should correct some of the outer distortion when using them in fast scopes. I believe the Orion shorty plus is the same design.
Enjoy

Good to know thanks.

Greg.
