The pictures of this post have been sent to Nikon service. They reply me to send my D800 back for service for max 5 days. I read online horrible stories of about 3 or more consecutive services ending tragically, with not a single AF bank left calibrated. I already went through one service.
As I could find a compromise with my D800 and the lenses I own, I do not want to risk. Unless you know of novel (after April 2013) Nikon guidelines for technical services on this D800 AF issue. Any news?

Pictures shot in different lights but also with (16-35mm) / without (50mm, 70-200mm) the last D800 firmware update (A 1.01, B 1.02): some yellow tint removed from jpeg format?
