If you are after good wide field, low power eyepieces, sadly you'll need to spend some bucks. The best I've used, with a 68deg FOV and with no coma corrector in my fast scopes are the TMB Paragon (sadly discontinued) and the Astro Tech Titan Type II (same EP as the Paragon but rebadged and cheaper), and the Tel Vue Panoptics. The first two are much lighter than the Panoptics and cheaper too. Go wider FOV than 68deg. and coma is a serious issue in fast scopes and requires the use of coma correctors.

Ah Thanks!

Yep. Sounds nice.
