Those longer exposure times would be handy depending upon your latitude and where you're pointing. There are some good resources online that help you to estimate the maximum alt/az exposure possible based on your latitude, object altitude and object azimuth. Armed with that info you could potentially make good use of those extended exposure times for some objects and still avoid field rotation. Take a look at the attached table - I hope it's helpful.
