an EQ platform would limit you to planetary/lunar I assume.. For deep sky imaging your 12" newtonian will be too much for the EQ6... I did quite a bit of research into this a few months back, as I wanted to do the same thing.. The replies I got were to either go with a smaller newt, an SCT, or go for a bigger mount. 90% of opinions on the bigger mount side of things were to go for the Losmandy G11.. Forum member 'Alchemy' does great work with a 12" newtonian on a G11 mount.
