Jarryd,
good to see you're asking questions but reading up as well - hence, your edits are no drama.
The ED80's a great place to start as there's a steep learning curve and it would still be useful later as a guidescope if you ended up purchasing a bigger scope - the EQ6 is a good choice too as it'll handle that sort of upgrade.
The bintel guide package seems like a good deal, couple that with the ED80 and EQ6 and you're on your way.
The you'll need - t-ring and extension tube to connect camera into the 2" focusser of the scope, a laptop, some cables and a bahtinov mask to help you with focus. All bit and bobs and most of the software is freeware.
good luck, have fun, stay calm!
