I have no idea what your streaks look like but intermittent, random,
colored streaks are characteristic of the problems affecting Sony
sensors in certain digital cameras and the cause of a Sony recall. I
know because my A1 was so effected. The effects I saw didn't look like
anything I'd previously seen about the problem but whatever was in the
image (and it does get recorded on the image) was something the camera
definitely made up on its own on the spot. My dining room doesn't
normally have a couple of weak pink streaks running diagonally across
the middle of the room of a horseshoe shaped green mist floating about.
I don't think the Sony recall affected other than point and shoot
cameras but I'm pretty sure Nikon uses Sony sensors.
See if the streaks are in the images as seen on the computer.
