Some good advice here, Jeremy.

I'd go for the smaller focal length EP, too. But, as already mentioned, there will be a limit to how useful it will be, particularly with a 6mm, or smaller focal length. You generally won't have the conditions to do it justice.

Additionally, unless you get a reasonably expensive 6mm (e.g., Televue Nagler or Ethos, perhaps), you will have a very short eye relief and a narrow exit pupil. So, viewing through a cheap 6mm will not be much fun.

Cheers
John
