Built in Germany to Zeiss' exacting standards, the Alpine Astronomical Baader 2x Carl Zeiss Abbe Barlow Lens features extra-low-dispersion glass elements and anti-reflection fully multi-coated optics to maximize light transmission and produce bright and crisp high-contrast images across the entire field of view. By adding an optional T-2 extension tube, the magnification can be boosted to 3x for even higher magnifications.

Designed for 1.25" eyepieces and drawtubes, the Barlow gets an upgrade from the conventional bronze locking ring and set screws with the addition of the 1.25" Baader Click-Lock eyepiece holder. This system uses three long roller bearings to hold and center the eyepiece firmly in place without marking or marring it. A simple twist locks and unlocks the clamping system for fast eyepiece changes, and the top of the clamp comes off to reveal T-2 mounting threads that accept camera-specific T-rings and adapters. The top of the Click-Lock has 6.5mm of travel for use as a micro-focuser or to adjust its height for matching other accessories.

    would have been better as a blog
    Format: Paperback
    First off, I have read over half of this book, but ultimately decided to put it down because it had a low signal-to-noise ratio. If the second half is filled with magic, I apologize in advance. What I liked: * The author is very honest. He does not shy away from discussing his failures (and successes). * The postmortem on the game "Life of Pixel" was especially good. * Interviews from various indie studios are sprinkled throughout. What I did not like: * A number of pieces of information were already out-of-date. This makes me think that the concepts should have been discussed at a higher level. For example, specifics about game engine costs are discussed. These numbers have changed since E3 of this year. Definitely recheck any information before formulating a plan based on the book's recommendations. * The indie studio interviews are a wasted opportunity in that they each interview has the same set of questions. It's like a questionnaire was sent out via email and the responses were pasted into the book. * When discussing commercial options, such as engines or other software packages, blurbs once again appear to be cut-and-pasted (this time verbatim from the package's web site). * Some of the advice is too broad and too light. For example, when writing about how to create a press release, the author discuss how to write in the active voice. I'm frankly not looking for writing tips in my Indie Game Developer Handbook. * The book is filled with tons of web links. My paperback copy was not so useful here. I ultimately left the book with the impression that the information would have been much better in the form of a blog. The author could have really gone in depth with the parts of the book that shined while keeping the surveys of topics in a form that serves them better (i.e. web links on the web).

    Helpful information and Questions to consider
    Format: Paperback
    As a writer of science fiction and fantasy I had already looked into the physical aspects of the worlds I was creating, but I quickly realized I needed to include society and culture in the worldbuilding. I started a search for information, questionairres, or guidelines to use and found very little that would be helpful to me as a writer. Until I came across this book. It's exactly what I needed. It touches on multiple aspects of beliefs and practices and asks questions to help you think through what you want for your worlds, even if it's mostly backgroud. A very useful tool.
