This is true... it better to have the best mount in the world, and an average telescope + camera than an average mount and best camera and scope. The mount really dictates what you can do and can't do...

For visual work, the 6" SCT + HEQ5 would be a great setup, as would an 8" newt on the HEQ5... for visual work, a HEQ5 will hold a 10" newt... it will suffer some vibration in a good breeze, but it will hold it..
