From a Leica PDF about the 80 -200 Vario written by Mr Puts (June 2005)'sekundäre Reflexionen tauchen fast nie auf, höchstens bei direktem Auftreffen der Lichtstrahlen aufs Frontelement.''Secondary reflections hardly ever appear or, at the utmost, only when rays of light are directly incident on the front element'Looks like you got a case of 'utmost' David
