Need eyepiece selection help! !

I need to buy a couple (2) eyepieces for a new scope I just ordered. It's an 8"
1200FL Dob.

I'm interested in looking at planets but mostly interested in deep deep deep
space stuff, Ok, as deep as an 8" can get.

Usually they come with a couple of 1.25" EPs. Won't yours? If so, wait
and see how they work for you.


I already have a 2X Tele Vue Big Barlow so I can double my power on each
eyepiece.

"Big" means 2"?



Price is no object but then again I don't want to throw money away if it isn't
necessary.

So I guess I want one for Planets and one for deep space and both to work well
with the Tele Vue Big Barlow. I'm old but don't wear glasses. (Not THAT old)


Some of us have worn glasses since we were very young. Glases acquired
later in life are often for reading only -- so you would not use them
witha scope anyway g
