You say you have a Newt, but you don't talk about the mount. If your going to be taking photographs your mount should be polar aligned for the Southern Hemisphere and be able to track and hold a star in the field of view. What kind of mount do you have? Is your mount aligned?
Secondly, eye pieces and cameras will have different focal points and thus require different focuser positions, try racking the focuser all the way in with the camera in place, then gradually back it out till the target object appears.
