Interesting call, you seem highly interested in a 10 inch dob, I imagine it would be ok on a eq6 pro, the solid tube gives you the photography option later on.
What to buy for an ever after setup is hard to determine, people sway from one thing to another, I went from a 90 mm refractor to an 8 inch cad, to am12 inch reflector, then to a 132 mm refractor. The refractor suits me at the moment, no collimating simple to use, far more stable than the 12 inch, lighter too.
If you wanted to be covered for every combination of astrophotography just get a paramount.... That's a very expensive mount !!!! But will handle just about anything going.
My advice is start simple, see if you like it, find your niche and then spend the bucks. Plenty of stunning images arebtaken with dslr cameras, short fl refractors, wide open astrographs, uber long fl stuff, so find what appeals to you. Note the longer fl you go the higher quality gear you generally need.
The collapsible dob will not be a good imaging scope.
