ED80 Field of view with Powermate

Hi all,
Just purchased a 2" 4x TeleVue Powermate from an IIS member (thanks Lars).
Intend to use it for visual and imaging work. I've ordered the T-ring attachment from Bintel and will be ready to go soon.

Question is at 4x the prime focus of my Skywatcher ED80, what FOV will I obtain and what objects will be best for imaging?
Will I be moving into planetary territory?
Cheers
Doug
