>Good eyepiece, sharp wide views.  Only problem is ghosting, bad on bright objects, visible on mag 4 or better objects.

To broaden the array of uses of your current EPs, you can also add a Skylight Filter (this is Celestron's antiglare LPR version), for cheap, to the visual back, and the ghosting is all but eliminated, at least on my 14" CGE.

The web site explains that this is strictly for Deep sky observing hence it's designation.  If you want eyepieces for both deep sky and planets and bright stars you will want to use the Ultra Series.  The Premium line will have ghosting on bright objects from the mag 4 or better as stated on our web site.
