An image scale of 0.63 arcsec/pixel is a good match for imaging small objects like galaxies. It will require good guiding but I'd argue that it's not heavily oversampled unless the seeing is consistently horrible. Image scale of 0.63 arcsec/pixel is well sampled for seeing around 2.2 arcsec. That might be better than average seeing in a lot of places but it's nice to able to take advantage of good conditions when they arise.

Cheers,
Rick.
