Astrometrica help?

Hello, 

I'm just throwing some subs of comet lovejoy at astrometrica (for fun) but its not finding a match for the stars. 
I think my focal length and camera settings are wrong. 

I took the subs on a 350d but have converted them to TIFF then to FITS using fitswork. They're not good as by that time in the morning my telescope was soaked with dew. Still they're not THAT bad. 

Any users that can help me out? 

Thanks, 

Dan  :smiley:

Okay. Well,  I managed to get a match. Fitswork made the comet look...well like a bunch of white pixels haha :tongue:  

Still happy I managed to get a match on a wet 60 second sub.

I stacked a few of the images in DSS to get this pic the other day. Hoping to go for it again tonight without the dew and with guiding. Try and get a better image.
