High ISO magenta noise

RIP :(
I guess that explains why I have never had the problem. I only shoot RAW and I have Active D-Lighting along with everything else turned off and handle everything in Post

Same here... In fact I had it stuck in my head for some reason the OP *was* shooting in RAW, though I'm not sure why I was thinking that.
I do remember trying ADL at one point, back when I shot JPG, but didn't like it specifically because of the noise it created in the shadows though I don't remember it being magenta in particular or as severe as what I saw here.
At any rate, I'm glad it's sorted out.
Hi, everyone again,
the problem persists. As already mentioned here:
http://nikonites.com/d810/29190-magenta-band.html?highlight=high+iso+magenta#axzz4MxZhaDrN
from ISO 5000 up there's always a magenta noise band along the bottom of the frame. Covering the viewfinder window or changing high ISO reduction setting has absolutely no effect. ADL is never used, I shoot in flat RAW. So I have to avoid ISO over 5000 because of the always present magenta noise which gets more vivid with raising ISO number. The camera's ISO reach up to 12800 makes no sense in this case.

Thanks a lot for your contributions. Seems like D750 users should take this kind of sensor behavior for granted and hope for future advancement in the digital imagery technology. By then, we probably must avoid using very high ISO numbers for paid photography unless we love heavy post-process with every picture taken when pushing sensors to their extremes. I admit that my existing experience with hand-held low light shots of action does not fully correspond to my expectations from this class of DSLR about which I had made extensive research before I decided to get one. No D750 review available on the internet to date ever mentioned this specific issue so I never expected to experience one. Well, I will stick with the strategy of shooting only under ISO 5000 for paying clients.
I appreciate every input in this discussion I started and would consider it closed from now on.
