Hi Fahim

I’ve found the TeleVue x3 Barlow from Bintel to be a good performer. If you are going to invest the effort and time image the planets, then it’s worth using a Barlow with a pedigree. Otherwise you risk disappointment with poor results after all that effort in setting up, getting the planet on the chip, focusing, acquiring the data and processing it.

Note that I am not saying that the less expensive one’s are of poor quality, as I have no experience in using those brands. I just stuck with TeleVue as I knew I would not be disappointed having one of their components in the imaging train.

Cheers

Dennis
