Would also recommend the ED120 , it will sit on an HEQ5, which will handle 10 / 12 kg easily. For deep sky , aperture wins, it will pull in fainter objects than smaller scopes. Will give good views for planetary and will work well for astrophotography . Not as well corrected around the edge of the frame as an triplet but it depends how obsessed you want to become. Can always upgrade to an triplet if and when you become more inclined to imaging.
