See a comparison of photographing the moon using the ZWO ASI 183MC and two different telescopes: the Celestron 127EQ Reflector versus the Skywatcher Evostar 100ED APO Refractor.

This is a very well made barlow lens I've been using for visual astronomy.  I found thought that this doesn't seem very compatible for astrophotography for my setup unless using the diagonal (only way to get camera focus).
