SCT v Newt for imaging

I am interested in getting into imaging so as to keep a visual diary of my observations.
I am thinking of using either a SCT or Newt on an EQ6 mount for both DSO and planetary? Would an EQ6 carry a LX200 12" with imaging accessories?
Would I be limited in the size of the Newt? Which would be visually superior, the SCT or the Newt? I have a Canon EOS 350d and a webcam that I have been using on my dob for lunar work and now it is time to get serious with imaging.
Thanks
