Since it only did it in my living room with the lights in there I am guessing many of you doing the test who don't see the issue actually do still have it. I couldn't replicate it anywhere but my living room, and there I seen it in like 5 seconds.
I agree. I tried many different light sources and angles until I could replicate the problem.

A bare bulb lamp at my desk, pointed directly towards the camera, I believe 40 Watts.

Thanks!
If a 40 Watts bulb can create it I'm sure people who shoot in sun all the time, stadium, stage and anywhere else where light can come from top left is prone to this issue. Specially for wedding photographers; try to explain why their first kiss image came out all crapy because my $2300 camera has a manufacturing defect.
I guess not, I tried a 40, 60, 100 watt also the sun. I tried live view and actual photos with 4 different lens. I guess I just do not know how to do it.
Thanks charles354

I take it all back Charles... you tried hard enough. Enjoy your camera... as many other folks not fixated on such things are doing already.
Yes, 40 watt light bulbs are the key. Lucky I always have a couple of them in my bag. It's IMO a must have for any wedding photographer. Nikon should provide them free of cash otherwise the D750 is useless

A 40 watt light bulb from a light in the living room should do the trick.
If I would have just tried it on my light bulb in my hallway and then in my kitchen I would have said mine is perfect also. I am guessing it's like the D600 issue, most people have it if not all to some extent.
I have 2 D800Es and a D3S that seem to be ok 2. To be honest I am going to sell the D3S and one of my Es and get the D810 now because I like the D750 and if the D810 works out I will get rid of other D800E. charles354

I already said I am still within my 30 day return policy but I think it would be so rare it would show up I honestly really don't care too much about it. I'm keeping it. Nikon will probably eventually admit it and fix it anyways. I called and talked to a tech, sent him a photo he wants me to send the camera in, I don't even know if it's worth it, do you guys think they will actually fix it?
Okay folks, here is my last(I promise) attempt at helping you understand lens flare. If you don't believe me and the following tests then I wish I had some swampland to sell you cause a bunch of you just ain't getting' it.
Here goes, this set up photo shows you my Sinar P 4x5 camera fitted with a Sinaron S MC 150mm F5.6 lens, wide open, no filter. It is pointed at a 250 watt model light from my Speedotron 102 flash head. My Nikon D810 w/85mm PC is pointed at the ground glass of the Sinar to capture the lens flare when I tilt the Sinar up and down from the tripod clamp.

I don't know what to think now. Show me this in a Canon and I'll be a non-issue.
There are situations where the D750 shows flare effects where other Nikon bodies like the D800 don't, even when using the same lens and lighting. If those situations aren't typical for you or the effects aren't bothersome then there's no issue to be concerned with. Additionally, there may be unrelated situations where all cameras exhibit similar flare effects and thus aren't D750-specific; naturally those wouldn't be a D750 concern.
You need at least some scientific experience or college level science education to properly replicate this problem charles354 wrote:

Thanks. I followed through this epic whole thread.
My understanding is:
1.D750's mirror box structure is more flare prone.
2. Due to the size of mirror box, the flare cut by something's edge
Someone replicated this issue without lens,it proved flare cause this issue. More diffuse reflection produced in mirror box if there is no lens installed. Because lens is a optical instrument for focus all light coming through it to
cmos in ideal. however, internal reflection (flare) in lens' elements can't be 100% percent avoided by lens design. some flare light hit mirror box.
How can you suggest a manufacturing defect? Maybe it was by design and manufactured to such design. Design and manufacturing defect(s) aren't necessarily the same.

I would send it in and see if they fix anything under warranty specially if you think it will effect your photos and you are not OK with it. If they fix it, that means they know about the problem and can help others with the same problem to get it fixed.
Nikon can also narrow it down the issue stop certain serial no or certain batches of the D750.
