11 mm and 50mm Eyepieces

I have an 8" f/6 1200mm focal length DOB. I have gottn hooked on 2" eyepieces, especially for viewing DSO's.
I am in the market for a 11mm eyepiece and a 50mm eyepiece with excellent FOV. With so many eyepiece selections out there my brain is about to explode(Did anyone see that movie Scanners?)Pound for pound I am looking for the best eyepieces out there, but there's a catch, I don't have the cash to go after the nice expensive eyepieces.
Can anyone help on deciding which eyepiece, and why, is best for my scope?
Thanks

Number one piece of advice is to not get a 50mm ep! You won't get any more true field of view than, say, the 40mm MK-70 from University Optics, and you'll be losing a lot of light. The exit pupil produced by the 50mm with your f6 scope will be over 8mm in diameter - which is much bigger than your pupil, which means you'll be wasting light. At some point, with Newtonian scopes, with large exit pupils you also start seeing a "shadow" of your secondary mirror. Bad.

Stick to no more than a 40-42mm eyepiece. You don't have that many options above that range anyway!

50 mm then consider a 2" Meade or Tele vue plossl.

11 mm if you are on a budget consider a 10.5 mm Meade plossl or a 11 mm Tele vue plossl. 50 degree filed is wide and nicely defined. Eye relief is O.K. Contrast very good.
Plossl's work well at f 6.
Or perhaps a UO orthoscopic, 45 degree field and sharp optics.
A 10 mm TV radian is another choice but expensive.

Any 11 mm eyepiece at 2" with a 65 degree field worth its salt will be expensive. I reckon the Tele vue will out perform most fo them in terms of contrast.
