Thanks again. I also have a TMB 9mm. So I'll buy the 6.7mm ES for the added magnification and FOV, and use the other eyepieces. Then down the road I'll aim to get something like a TV Panoptic for DSOs.

It will be useful to find objects in its wider FOV, but once you're centred on the object you'll probably want a higher power to increase contrast. The 15mm and 9mm Plossls will be very good for many, many deep sky objects.
