Ok, so this is very very interesting- this issue appears to only occur when using the mechanical shutter. When using the ES the noise is totally clean and even, as it should be. See

Hmm, in both cases there seems to be a green rectangle visible in the middle - may I suppose that is caused by phase detection pixels...?

Here, I`ve boosted contrast to make it more visible:

Yes, the green rectangle is due to the different AF sensors in the center of the frame, I realise that there is no way that this will disappear, but in real world shots I can't make the center square visible at all. The discolouration at the bottom when using the mechanical shutter is plainly visible in real world shots when pushing the raw files well within their actual limits.
