Well done.
Actually I think it's also some field curvature. Notice how the stars in all four corners are elongated away from the centre. However, the the left hand side does seem a shade worse than the right hand side, so there may be some misalignment as well. I have exactly the same problems with my ZS110, which has the same optics as the FLT 110.

This is a faint object, especially with an unmodded camera. However you have a good starting point, so if you can add more data, things will only get better.
