Not sure about the 4SE as i have never imaged with one (used to own a 5SE though) but i don't think the F ratio of 13 helps very much. But if you wanted to try, give M83 a crack i reckon. A nice colourful galaxy if you get it right again i'm not sure how it would look with the 4SE as i'd assume you'd need pretty long exposures at f13, but give it a go nonetheless!

HERE is a good example of M83 (one that I personally like anyways).
