[Magic] Differences between Enchantments

I'm looking at getting some equipment enchanted, and noticed some overlap in protective abilities. Deflect adds a DB bonus to an item like a weapon, shield, or armour. Defending Shield adds a bonus to blocking for a specific shield, but is much more expensive than Deflect for the same +1 bonus (500 vs 100). Does the bonus from Deflect not add onto the defense bonus of a shield, or is Defending Shield only worth it once a few levels of Deflect has been taken?
