Hi Starkler,
My 2c worth (hang on it's got to be at least 5c my now, just based on inflation!) is a point meteor.
I used to photograph the sky a lot using normal wide field camera lenses looking for novae and I would pickup a couple a night at least. I would swear it was real 'star' until I checked my duplicate image (I would take them in pairs, 6 min exposures one after the other) and nothing would be there.
Point meteors are common around the radiant of a meteor shower (when it is on). Now I haven't heard of the "Pavids", but who knows, the southern skies are not monitored as much as the north - you might have discovered a new one (I know somewhat of a stretch!)
Regards
Glenn
