Hi Craig and welcome,
As far as a telescope goes i would recommend the f5 newt, you can get away visually without a coma corrector and some cropping on photos will take care of the rest, the f4 you will need one definitely.
However, I will suggest you stretch the budget and get a HEQ5 rather than the EQ5. it is a much sturdier mount and if you want to image you really need the HEQ5. visually the EQ5 will be ok. Maybe look for a second hand model?
Cheers,
Russell
