I keep going back and fourth on whether to keep it or send it back to adorama. I would feel so much better about keeping it if Nikon acknowledged it and said they would take care of it one way or another. But as of right now they are just telling me to send it into them. I don't know if that means it will actually get fixed or not.

I still haven't seen a decent photo ruined by this phenomenon. Every shot posted had so much over the top flare, in my opinion, they were rubbish to begin with. Not saying it couldn't happen, but it seems that under the circumstances it appears, it's not a problem that will show up unless pushed under extreme conditions. I understand everybody's shooting style & likes are different, but at least for me, it's not a worry....
Same here, but after just seeing Tysonbaker's 60 shots with 4 in it, that is pretty scary. Outdoor wedding ceremony is what has me a little uneasy right now.
Have a D750 + 50 1.8G in hand now; SN# 3018XXX. Took few shots in broad daylight against sun to top left corner and up in LV and there's a translucent band. Disappointed!!

im not sure what happens once you return the new camera to the seller once they receive it.
I would either send it for repair or exchange it with explanation.
Enough return, complaints and repair request on new bodies will promt Nikon to find out the cause and provide fix to end users.
Unles Ofcourse, Nikon decides to look the other way like they did in the beginning when people complained about D600 oil spot issue.

The primary function of a camera is to be a light tight box for proper exposures. If that function is not accomplished properly, the camera is essentially a failure.
No one seams to dare to answer to my speculations on dpreview so I'll se what you guys think of my attemt of a theory...
Could this "phenomenen" simply be...
... a reflection caused by the protective piece og glas on top of the image censor? This piece of glas has some thickness and therefor an edge of which you could have something reflecting. The double lines could even be explained with an chamfered edge on the protective piece of glas.
This explenation is supported by the fact that the shadow is in top of the frame when the light is above the camera and vice versa. With the light above the camera it could be shining onto the bottom edge of the protective glas causing a reflection onto the bottom of the censor / top of the picture. I can't explain why it shows up as an hard edge in the top and soft edge at the botton (and why this is vice versa on the D610).
My goal when I started this thread was to find out if the problem exists and if it does what can be done to resolve it.
This forum is by far the best for help where we have the least amount of users who replies non sense and I really hope to keep this thread readable for those who is looking for help or willing to help.
Now it's certain that the problem on D750 exists. Now, I hope someone replies who admits it's a problem and brings something to think or to resolve the issue.
Here's what I'm looking for to get to some kind of conclusion.
1) Serial no of those who has this problem
2) serial no of those who doesn't have problem
3) if you have a problem, what are you doing with it? Keeping it, sending it for repair, or sending it for return/exchange
4) any theories which can explain the issue or resolve the issues.
Thanks to all who have helped so far or tried to help.
Let's keep it professional as we all are.

Does D610 black band show in photos?
Yes. I have never seen it in any of my pictures though, but that doesn't say much since I haven't taken alot of back-lit pictures - but the few I've taken has not had this "issue".

Hummmm, does it have flare look like D750 below or on top of the "black bandit" (now it has a name!) of D750?
Would you mind posting some photos?
Like the D750 something is cutting of the flare at the top and bottom of the picture. On the D610 its less visible at the top and the transition is soft. In the bottom of the picture the transition is with one or two hard edges (depending on angel of light).
My feeling is that the D610 is much less prone to this issue. I can only provoke it with my daughters hard LED spotlight. I can't replicate it with the halogen spots in my bathroom noor with the normal bulbs in my kitchen.
I'll se if I can post some photos (fighting with Lightroom 5.7)
Edit #1: Lightroom needs a clean install it looks like :-(. No photos today - but the photos I've taken looks exactly like the pictures in my video.
Edit #2: Just loked at some pictures again and it seams I remember the lines on the D750 wrong. The D750 also has two hard edged lines in the bottom like the D610. To me it appears as the D750 har a more defined shadow with a harder edge that the D610.
