So I can take the 6.3mm and the 40mm and the 2x barlow and I should be good?

sounds like a plan to me and will give you plenty of flexibility.

What is the difference between a plossl and a super plossl anyway?Quality?
Is the difference so big?Can I just go with the normal one?Or is the quality less good?
|
the super plossyl will likely have a wider field of view and will have extra glass in it , may have be better at compensating for optical problems too .... not terribly knowledgeable on this or into all the ins and outs and pros and cons of occulars.

Should I grab some filters as well?

Later , see how go first . Maybe a ND4+ (moon) filter if the moon is too bright for you through the scope , they're cheap as chips.
If there is lots of light pollution where you are going to be using it a Light Pollution Filter (1.25" from Celestron maybe) or a UHC-L 1.25" might be worth looking at , esp if you decide you want have a crack a faint fuzzys and maybe put a camera at the prime focus .... no rush on that.
Color filters - I've never bothered with them .
Check out this guide on filters from Lumicon as a guide , filters , again you are spoilt for choices (and can be cheap as chips to costing a few hundred each).

And no I dont go fishing..I dont have a boat or know enough people who has one,so I am really on my own,thx.
|
No boat here either - I'm a land lover from way back - doesn't stop me from going though and I still manage to catch big fish and regularly catch lots of fish. I usually do so by myself , but I'm well known amongst tbe local nigger fishos, the local snapper specialists and jewie specialists , being one myself . Great way of making friends by the way , always nice to have bit of a chin wag with the guy fishing on the bank or jetty or rock next to you between bites , heck you might want him to gaff your fish for you if you hook a whopper..
