I have just gone through buying equipment from a similar starting point and with the same aim. I ended up buying an EQ6 Pro mount ($2000) and a WO FLT 110 triplet telescope. With various accessories to mount the scope, attach my existing DSLR and some other bits and pieces it was a further $4000. I also bought ($500) a modified SPC900NC webcam (with various accessories) for lunar imaging with the plan to use it with a guide scope later. Once I have some experience using this equipment I will look at getting a smaller guide scope (probably a WO ZenithStar 66.)

Now all I need is some clear skies to use the stuff!!

BTW I have used the scope a couple of nights and I was very pleased with the scope.
