Just because something is possible doean't mean that it is potentially award winning.
And before you try to miscontrue my words, I encourage people to push the limits of what you can do with what you have. Personal satisfaction is a far greater reward than any award.

Andrew, It is apparent you are the resident equipment expert, at least in your own mind. Lets take an image of say, Tarantula Nebula. I really think you will struggle to find something in the same price bracket that will encompass the expance of this nebula, include correct colour rendition, and provide a sharp flat field.
Perhaps I should spell out the equipment list for comparison: ED80 $499, EQ5 with dual axis motors $799, Home Modified Toucam $200, Nebulosity capture software $50 and a free photo editor.
Do you actually image yourself or are you basing your expertise on what you have read?
Go for it, Have fun, I am.
