If they don't say so themselves... I'm pretty sure it was the best 150mm lens on the market, for obvious reasons. Depending on what you call a "medium telephoto lens" they are probably right (assuming K150/4 == SMC-T 150/4). There are 105 and 200mm lenses that are possibly better, but inbetween that the K150 was a very strong contender. Optically speaking, a 150mm f/4 is not all that ambitious, which would give it a likely edge over faster designs. DJE
