I have both Skywatcher and GSO Dobs and imaging newts
I favour GSO Bintel over Skywatcher newts for imaging
An 8” f5 imaging newt at 1000mm focal length has plenty of reach and is not a small scope
Just remember the longer the focal length to less forgiving in regards to tracking and guiding
Personally I wouldn’t go any bigger than an 8” f5 Newt on the EQ6-R unless it’s on a pier or in a Dome on a pier
Good luck with your set up
