They seem to be the mounts to get.

Hi Ryan,
I started with Skywatcher EQ6 and was more than happy with it, in fact, I still have it with 120mm refractor set up at a Dark Site. I had a C11 (non edge version) set up on it, but it was just at its limits, when you added a Autoguider plus camera etc, for AstroPhotography (general rule for Astrophotography, no more loading that half the mounts maximum loading capacity).
Other than being a little noisy when slewing at maximum speed, I had no complaints about it, and even when working at its limits, performed well.
Cheers
Peter
