Toucam, new eyepieces, money no object??

Ok guys.

http://www.televue.com/engine/page.asp?ID=144

Houghy probably has this page burnt into his screen as a screensaver.

For the noobies that are starting not to be noobies, they most probably have a toucam, series 500 or gs ep's. Time to start saving for an upgrade. The also have bought a Williams Optics Digiscope for taking pics thru the eyepieces using the method called digiscoping (link: http://www.televue.com/engine/page.asp?ID=236#Afocal)

They have prime focus covered for planets etc with their toucam and its 1.25" adapter already. The televue 5x will be in the stable for planets etc imaging

Looking at the televue chart, and given that images are wanting to be taken thru the eyepiece at say 40 or 50x, Which two eyepieces & barlow would be the best combo??? money is of no object in this scenario. I am looking for an optimal combo of two ep's and a barlow. (The televue 5x will also be in the collection, but not for viewing thru so don't worry about including him).
