Dave I think you have made a wise choice for visual work sticking with the 10" Dob but if you were getting into photography and had the choice of putting a 10" F6 dob on a EQ6 or 8" F4 Schmit newt then it's a no brainer to me 8" F4 by 200%...the amount of flex and extra weight will highly increase movement destroying your images..then you have all the other accessoris as you will need to guide.

Summery.

10" DOB great for visuals but on a EQ6 not recommended.
8" F4 schmit newt far superior in performance on a EQ6

You will enjoy your dob there great value for money and easy to use.
