Wolfthun,
Welcome.
I spent considerable time (and drove everyone crazy in here) deciding on which mount to get for my ED80.
The ED80 is a very light scope (great for DSO pics) and yet I was convinced by many to go for the EQ6 over an EQ5, CG5, etc.
Best purchase in a long time. I can put heavier scopes on it at a later date (I have a 12" dob but scared to put it on it
).
Also, the 10" will give you better views visually than the 8".
