I know you did not mention astrophotography at all, but should you wish to ever go down that path, I would avoid the AZ-EQ5, as there are numerous reports, including by one Australian dealer, of vibration that seems not able to be dampened at this stage. It likely explains why the AZ-EQ5 is NOT a strong seller. Not an issue per se for visual, but for imaging, it's a deal breaker.

iOptron on the other hand....no, I won't comment. Just don't.

Stick with the EQ5 for now or consider the AZ-EQ6 (which will more than adequately handle it)
