I cant remember what it was - probably 3.5 (if not 4) - but it was a very
horrible lens.

Neil,
I have often thought a 300/2.8 lens would compliment my concert
photography, indeed I've seen several other photographers using them in
these situations.
Was the lens you had the f2.8 lens? This is the cheapest option for
Leicaflex use (with an Adaptall 2 mount), sometimes seen for a third of the
Leica lens equivalent.
