Hi Grant
Agree with others that an HEQ5 pro is on the limit with the setup you are contemplating. I have a HEQ5, EQ6 and a GSO f4 8inch. I would recommend the EQ6 and an f5 scope - you will have a much more enjoyable time imaginging with this setup, rather than trying to work out why the lighter setup or the shorter scope is not producing round stars. It's not that the HEQ5/f4 system cannot work well, but everything is much less forgiving than with the larger mount and an f5 scope. Regards, Ray
