Hello Ben
If you are just starting out with some DSO imaging (large nebula, galaxy clusters etc) then I would defiantly start with a wide scope (the 65Q/ED80 etc) on the HEQ5.
If you can stretch to the NEQ6 then get it so you are a little bit future proofed should you upgrade to a heavier scope (or want to use your 8se and the 65Q).
But my two cents is get the HEQ5, 65Q (or similar) and use a finder as a guide scope (with a little QHY5 or similar). Using a finder guider with a wide FOV scope is a doddle and you will get some really good results.
Cheers
Jeremy
