I think I solved this myself amazingly enough (!), by finding this on the web: 

"With natwidth and natheight you are trying to specify a bounding box which is not supported by the pdftex driver:
the driver pdftex.def does not support the manual specification of the bounding box, because it is not needed. If the user wants to have a portion of the image, there are options viewport and trim to specify this wish in a cleaner way. Option bb is treated as viewport with a warning."

In case this helps anyone else.

Cheers, Rob
