Most this sounds fine for extended objects but back in the film days it was understood for stars aperture is the main thing , this is why I had to expose a 20 mm F5.6 shot for 90min on film to get enough stars for a good milky way shot.
I dont think CCD makes much differance but if you take the focal length too far the stars may behave like extended objects.
