BINOVIEWER/BARLOW LENS

[ecneps1948]

Hi

I have just purchased an etx80 mainy for viewing the moon and terrestrial viewing

I have also purchased a binoviewer my question is on the barlow lens in the binoviewer

could I just buy a short focus barlow lens and insert it into the single binoviewer lens

or could I use 2 barlow lenses one in each of binoviewer and then insert my eyepieces would this also work?

I am new to astronomy any help would be appreciated

thanks

I use a screw-in 1.6x Barlow in the bv, and also can just put it into a 2x Barlow then into the scope to give me 3.6x in total.this is in a skywatcher 8" dob. I don't see any problems with you doing the same.
