I will need to do a more formal 2nd light next time I have some more favourable conditions.

Thanks for looking and would appreciate any comments.

Daniel to me it looks like regular noise due to the long exposure.
The 50D is said to have more noise at higher ISO's than previous models due to it's pixel density.
My guess is that it is inherent in the camera.

I do hope it's simply the cables but the only way to verify this is to try again with the cables restrained.

Hope you get it sorted, let us know how you go.
