New refractor

I have had my fun with an 8" dob and have dabbled in some wide field photography (just with camera lens) but now I would like to make a step up to a nice refractor. The photos you guys have produced are inspiring and I would like to give it a shot myself.. but starting with the basics, I don't think I will get into full tracking etc yet.

Does anyone know if the Skywatcher 100ED (on EQ5) is a good choice for imaging? or perhaps a similar Orion version

I am looking at spending up to around $800, more if it includes a mount, also I would be happy to buy second hand.

Thanks in advance guys
