To state the obvious, all film is extremely light sensitive. The light "contamination" here is not specific to the fact you're shooting ISO 800 film - you could get the same with ISO 50 film. I think you've just been unlucky/sloppy at some point in loading/unloading/handling your film. Obviously rollfilm is not in a little light-tight cassette like 135 film - you don't necessarily need to load the film under a jacket, but you do just need to take care - especially in unloading. Most of the time, we avoid light leaks, but that one time when you're being a bit too casual is when it's going to happen. I've had the same thing happen myself. I bought a bunch of small elastic bands and always put one around each exposed roll - I just don't trust the adhesive strip on its own. I also bought some disposable/resealable black Mylar pouches, and keep my exposed film inside there, and even send my film to the lab like that too. -
