Sky Watcher Evostar 120ED DS-PRO or Ascension 102ED Triplet APO

Hi

I'm having a bit of a dilemma , I've narrowed down the choice of my next scope to Sky Watcher Evostar 120ED DS-PRO or Ascension 102ED Triplet APO due to my budget ( unless anyone can suggest anything else) and I don't know which one to go for. It will be going on a celestron CG5GT mount and the camera is a QHY8L. Any input or advice would be much appreciated.

I have an ED120 and it's a great scope but I just do visual observing. For imaging I believe you need to over-mount the scope so the 102ED might be better from that respect on the CG5GT. It's a triplet too which might be an advantage for imaging.

Thanks for that
