I would have to agree with Alex. I think you would be better off saving a while longer and going straight for the EQ6. This way you will have much greater flexibility for the future. I have been down this track. I originally purchased a HEQ5 Pro, then within 12 months, had "upgraded" to an EQ6, and my only regret was that I did not do it sooner. It is a very stable platform. I honestly believe it to be the "best bang for buck" mount out there. Incidentally, with all my imaging gear, the ED120, ED80, DSLR, DMK etc, I am only loading the mount to a total of 10kg!!
