I have just gotten my guided mount working with a guide camera and astroeq. What deep sky targets would you recommend for shooting in Queensland, Australia? I have the following gear:

Motorised EQ5 mount

Pentax K5ii (unmodified) 

90mm lens

135mm lens

200mm lens

300mm lens (coming soon) 

1000mm Skywatcher 200p

Not au-fait with the southern hemisphere, but I think the Small Magellanic Cloud & Large Magellanic Cloud are easy[ish] targets.

Yeah, I've previously imaged the LMC, and I'm keen to try again with the better lenses I have now. Am yet to shoot the SMC.
