Guide cameras and CCD,s

Hi all I'm getting my EQ 6 in the morning so I'm now looking for a guide camera.
I would love some good advice on what to get and what to spend.
I'm looking at the SSAG but also thinking of getting a OK CCD that can also image.
I currently have a 600d Dslr for imaging so maybe I should just concentrate on on a guide camera for guiding.
I've seen some guide cameras for $199 but they stress they have trouble with dimmer stars.
I also looked at the Mx7c Starlight express on the classifieds but I'm not sure if they are any good for guiding.
I'm using a 70mmx500mm refractor as my guide scope if that helps.
as you can tell I'm a little confused as what to buy so would love some advice from experienced imagers.
Thanks in advance Brad
