Thanks for the feedback. I was gaining the impression that EQ6 Pro is the way to go, but nice to have confirmation.
Brendan, the 8" newt idea sounds attractive. I had the idea that newts were not suitable for imaging with a DSLR as they had trouble getting the focus on the CCD? Is that correct, or can they be modified to make them work.
I have a little 130mm newt at the moment, If i went silly and grabbed an EQ6 Pro, would it be possible to mount the newt on it while I saved for a decent apo refractor.
