Yeah, there is a lot more to a mount than carry capacity. The HEQ5 will be a better all round mount, especially if you don't plan to get into guiding any time soon. The heq5 should allow 30sec-1min exposures unguided if you're lucky, the eq5 would struggle to do this. If you already have a toucam I doubt it will be long before you get into guiding and I honestly think the HEQ5 will be better for imaging in both short and long term. And as for a guidescope... many people are having success with finderscopes as guidescopes!
Does the eq5 even have a guide port?
