You make one point that should direct your purchase. AP is further down
the line for you, so for now, visual is most important. Anything under
8" will fairly quickly become a bit disappointing visually. A solid mount is
an absolute must visually, and for AP, so an 8" Newt on an HEQ5 or an
NEQ6 [according to your budget] would seem to be a logical choice, as
suggested by Glend. You may decide on a different scope for imaging
eventually, but until you do, the Newt will do a good job.
