NGC5189 - Looks like something from Startrek

Slightly off the beaten track, this is NGC5189, The Spiral Nebula. An interesting and irregular shaped planetary nebula 3000 light years away in the southern constellation of the fly (Musca).

GSO 10" F4 Newtonian, HEQ5 Pro, Canon 1100D FSM, Baader Semi-Apo filter, Baader MPCC MKIII, 585 x 30 seconds unguided.

Large field at Astrobin ---> https://astrob.in/351099/0/

Soooo, if I get a small chip astro cam like the cooled ASI178MC, will I be able to get more gooderer pics of tiny objects like this? Because I want em. They fascinate me. This thing is bizarre.
