CG5-GT vs EQ5pro vs HEQ5

Hi all

Im looking to upgrade my mount, I am torn between the Celestron CG5-GT mount, and the Skywatcher EQ5pro or HEQ5. I realise that the CG5 is identical to the EQ5, but from what I have read the Celestron handcontroller software is a lot better than Synscan, allowing for a much easier alignment procedure.

I will be using a Celestron C8, and possibly a 100mm refractor at a latter stage

I think it would be mostly visual observation, but I will dabble in imaging...
