hi Daniel, my choice would be the HEQ5 pro, the other mounts in my regards would be overloaded for imaging. What I have is more or less the same as the CG5 and with my new 6" reflector which weighs in about 7kgs it fails to perform. After tapping on the OTA or tripod it takes 20-30 seconds to calm down and if theres a breeze, forget it!! With that mount I would not go more than a C8 or 4-5" APO.
Mine carries a 4" APO well at a total of 7kgs with camera and guidescope.
If you can go bigger and afford it go for the EQ6 like Eric says..
Cheers Gary
