Hi there Kev,
In my opinion, I would pay the extra few hundred bucks and go for the AZ EQ6 GT instead. I "traded up" to one from an EQ6 Pro, and it is a better mount. I do find it quiter, easier to use (clutch locks - both RA and Dec, alt adjustments,........ etc).
Plus, if you want to use it from a visual perspective, you can run the mount in AZ mode which would be much more suitable from a newtonian perspective.
I can highly recommend the mount!
Cheers,
Daniel
