Tonight is the first night there has been a gap in the clouds since I got my Barlow. Just looked at the moon with it and the 5mm Vixen at approx 480x magnification. Looks really good. I didn't think i would be able to see the craters so clearly. It is shimmering a bit, but this should go away when it gets a little darker.

I haven't used any other barlow before so I don't have anything to compare it to, but i think this Vixen for $49 is a great buy.
