The LPI is a “Lunar & Planetary Imager” which is geared towards taking images of the bright Moon and bright Planets. Whilst it does have a maximum exposure of 16 seconds, it is not really suited to deep sky astro photography, and so I would remove the LPI as a potential candidate if you would like wide field, deep sky photographs where sub frame exposures are usually 2 to 10 minutes each.
Also, the LPI doesn’t offer much imaging real estate, 640x480 pixels is quite a small area in terms of today’s sensors for deep sky.
