Hello all,

Just wanted a bit of help from you experienced people out there so that i can get the most out of my telescope. I bought a 6.5mm plossl eye piece, but im not completely happy with what i am seeing. I have noticed that people use 2X Premium Barlow lens or a barlow lens of some kind.

If possible could someone shed some light on what this means? What is the difference between Plossl and Barlow? And will the 2X Barlow be a better eye piece for viewing planets and than my plossl 6.5mm???

Thanks in advance for any help given.
