Televue have the best 2x 2inch barlow on the market IMO, the 2inch Powermate, not sure of your budget, but this is worth the purchase.

thanks for that.... I do have a 2" 2x ED barlow lens (of unknown brand $200) ... but have no idea how to set it up with the camera !!! LOL
"What mount are you using??"
I also have a HEQ5 mount but haven't learnt how to use that either !!!
I just had the telescope set up on my camera tripod.
Or do you mean camera mount ??? That's a 2” Camera Adapter with 40mm Extension Tube.
cheers
