BEFORE you spend money decide what you want to get from a 2" eyepiece (not lens), and good eyepieces can cost many hundreds, at least £150-200, and no one can say what is best for you.
For Moon I prefer my 19mm 2" Celestron Axiom, and 8mm Vixen LVW, for planets my Baader Hyperion 5mm, all cheapish, but these are personal choices and your choice is your own, TRY before you buy
remember a telescope is only as good as the eyepiece as a camera is only as good as the glass on the front of it
