Grab yourself a copy of CCD Calc, plug the specs for your scope and the CCD into the program and it will allow you to see what the FoV is for various objects. You can also run it for a scope with a reducer as well (just type in a new entry with the amended focal length).

You'll find targets such as most galaxies and PN's etc will be better imaged at the native f length.
