Hello again
The only other thing to consider is that the eq5 mount will not connect through the computer for guiding later. I think there is an upgrade synscan controller available but do check as it becomes important later. the cheapest mount i know of for computer control and guiding is the meade LX, but they have a poor reputation. The cheapest i could find was the heq5 pro. And yes any scope can be mounted to any mount.
