I would agree with Dave here (and a couple of others) in recommending the 10mm Pentax XW and the 27mm TV Panoptic. I own both of these for use in my 10"/f5 dob. The 10mm Pentax XW is the best eyepiece I have used in this focal length range and I have used a lot of them, including everything made by Televue. The 27mm TV Panoptic is a great eyepiece and the best value for money in this focal length range. The 26mm TV Nagler T5 is a slightly better eyepiece than the 27mm Panoptic IMO, but its bigger and heavier physically and in the wallet department. It's the best eyepiece I have used in the longer focal lengths, but it is very expensive. If you have more problems in life than money, I would be going 10mm Pentax XW and the 26mm Nagler T5. If you're like most of us and have to be a little cost conscious the 10mm Pentax XW and the 27mm TV Panoptic will suit you perfectly, for probably your lifetime and most definately the scopes
