Here is the only mention I could source (Keywords are too common I guess) : http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/showthread.php?252398-Bavaria-Rain-first-shots-with-the-FS100

Thought it was my cheap Fader doing it, but for good measure, after noticing it in the footage, I removed the battery, unplugged the HDMI cables, then connected the battery and plugged the NanoFlash back in etc.

Tried two different NDs, Fader and Regular Hoyas and aside from the obvious difference in color, no black bar on the right side of either image.

Same lens, etc.

So now I am assuming that it's an issue with the HDMI, but the problem is I don't think you can see it on the camera while you're shooting. You could always fix it if you had too, by masking the portion and adjusting the contrast but it is still pretty weird.

Note: it is in both the AVCHD and Nanoflash footage, I have been dual recording for comparison.

Any info on this?

Here's a still:

Its your adapter. I had this problem with my fotodoix adapter and switched to novoflex and ive never had the problem since
 
Nothing to do with the adapter brand or price per-se.
It´s the type of release button/lever where the light enters.

I showed that already almost a year ago - have a look:


After that, I lined my adapters wit black felt, problem solved (+ some reflections went away).
Some black gaffa tape would also do the trick though.
