Hi Graeme, not a great deal of difference between them. The f5 will be fractionally shorter and maybe fit in your car a bit easier if necessary but the f6 will give slightly higher magnification with any Eyepiece. Planets need magnification apparently so for your purposes if all things are equal re quality of build etc then the f6 is your best bet.
