Mick,
A well balanced NEQ6 will handle the load.
Re camera - for planets/ lunar/ solar a CCD camera is better - fast frame rates and ability to stack etc.
I prefer mono (better resolution) but colour is OK.
Look at the ZXO ASI range - I use the ASI 174MM for solar
A DSLR is a good starting point for DSO - good support for Canons and some good software out there to control it. Problem is the next step on the ladder guiding.....
I have both a modded 1000D (FULL full mod - both filters removed -for spectroscopy) and a std 450D for general shots.
I can't comment on mod suppliers/ pricing, I got mine done while in the UK by Andy at Astronomiser.
