Have a look at some of my images in Deep Space section ( including a couple of galaxies recently and also back in April / May too

Yes and also check out Lee Borsboom's gallery he used an 8" F4.5 Newt, the camera you use is part of the equation too, small pixels are common in cameras now and make imaging small objects, at shorter FL's, very viable. Good luck with your journey
