DSI or QHY5 for auto guiding

In a somewhat related query to the LPI v DSI for imaging question mine is....

2 secondhand cameras for the same price - a DSI and a QHY5 which would be better for guiding. I have ED80 set up with a smaller guidescope. I had thought the DSI might be good for planetry imaging as well but am I trying to make something do 2 things when I should be focussing on one task. DSO photographs taken with Canon 350D. So, should I just concentrate on that and use a 2" barlow for planets with that if I want. Or, will both be okay for planets.

Am keen not to keep both sellers hanging on so any advice greatly appreciated.

cheers
