A HEQ5 and an 8" newt would be a good combination for astrophotography. If you can extend the budget, the EQ6 would be even better. For astrophotography you want the biggest and best mount you can afford.

The EQ5 is certainly not good for the 10", for both astrophotography and visual. You would definitely want to get the EQ6.

btw welcome to IIS James!

Are you planning to use it for photography or purely visual?
