Which mount would I need?

[johnkirkpatrick]

I have a SW Skyliner 200p and am thinking of getting a mount for it for imaging, Which would be the best mount to get? Would the Heq5 be good enough? The Neq6 and the likes are miles out of my price range..

For imaging I'd go NEQ6 Pro with an 8" tube. The HEQ5's about £550 s/h up to a year old in good working condition. Maybe a 2yr old EQ6 would be near that price - I'd keep a close eye on the For Sale section and Astro buy/sell if I were you John.

Depends what you're imaging.

I use a 200p on an EQ4 for solar system stuff with no problems.

both dso and planets, but to start with i would be using a web cam before starting the cannon 1000d plava
