Vertical band and super weird stuff after 1.092

Upgraded 1.09 -> 1.092 before a trip this week. I've been experiencing two strange problems since and I wanted to get your input. No corrections have been applied to the images I'm about to reference.

 

First one I'm more concerned about. Since the upgrade I've been getting a vertical band around 1/5 the frame width from the left edge. Worse, I don't see it all the time, and I can't find a pattern (I thought it was only appearing at high ISOs, but now I don't think so). Take a look at the 100% crop in the first image below to see what I'm talking about.

 

Second was a completely isolated incident. I think it speaks for itself; take a look at the second image below. Note that this is exactly how the image came out of the camera; I didn't touch it in postprocessing. WTF? Thankfully, this is the only example of this weirdness in the 200 shots or so I took over the last two days, but it still raises an eyebrow. Also note the lack of a vertical band in the second sample despite the fact that this image has practically identical exposure settings and was taken moments after the first one.

 

What do you think?

Ok, so this is what I get for not reading the forums before posting. I read Sean's previous thread/survey on vertical band issues and went back to check if I had any high ISO examples of this band, and lo and behold I do, but very few. I'm seeing it far more frequently on 1.092, or that's my impression.

 

Anyone else? Also, has there been any updates on vertical banding in general?

Thanks for the feedback. I'm going to assume that one was a fluke.

 

Now I just need to figure out this thin band problem. I may just be searching for excuses but I swear I'm seeing this much more since 1.092.
