Howdy all,
        Thanks for the help on my lens.  It's not the camera body(s).
I'm am 99ure that it's happened on more than one body, and I
think on all three.  Mostly, my 85 is mounted on my 4T.  Never have
any other lenses exhibited such behavior.  I'm posting two more
example for your analysis.  I believe this problem to be only lens
related.

Not particularly good pictures, but good examples of this problem.
I have the proper lens hood for the 85mm and was using it on both
these shots.

That is really weird.  It definitely seems to be flare.  The picture
with the big sunlit car top and sunlit car hood(bonnet) has much more
than the parade picture with the smaller white sign in the
background.  The one with the car seems to have double spots which
may be caused by the separation of the hood and the car top. The
number of spots seems to roughly correlate with the number of lens
element surfaces. Could it be some shiny spot at the rear of the lens
on one side which is reflecting light back into the lens and
spreading the reflections out on the film plane?
