M104 (sombrero) or M109

Any ideas on which would be easier to image with my Canon 80D ( not modded) and sigma 150-600mm on my AZ-GTI in EQ mode.

I'm in Bortle sky 6

M109 is higher up so you can probably get more time on it over multiple nights where M104 is much lower in the south and the moon will cross its path when it's around. Depends if your view south is restricted. Both are small targets. Smaller than M51 for example.

Thank you David, I have a good view to the south and NO view to the west, north and east not too bad.
