Eyepiece Help

Posted By John Burkus

I purchased a 10" dob that will came with a 2" rack and pinion focuser. I plan to use it for deep space and planets. Which three eyepieces would you suggest if:

1. One went top of the line?

2. Modest be adequate?

3. Barely adequate --- anything less and one should find a new hobby?

Hi:
Has anyone had any experience with this scope?
Is it one up from a department store scope or does it have some more serious pretensions?
