A well accepted approach for imaging deep-sky objects utilizes long exposures, requires good guiding, good to excellent seeing conditions, and would typically employ filtering to reduce the effects of light pollution. At the other extreme are approaches such as speckle imaging techniques (commonly 'lucky imaging'), which utilize many hundreds to many thousands of extremely short exposures in an attempt to eliminate the effects of light pollution, poor seeing conditions, and poor guiding. Choices made for values of certain inputs to the exposure calculator will vary depending upon which imaging approach is being employed.</para>
