Variants & identification

Variant	Mount	Years	Serial ranges	Production
Mamiya AF 150mm f/3.5 (original)	Mamiya 645 AF	2000	—	—
Mamiya AF 150mm f/3.5 D	Mamiya 645 AF	—	—	—

Element count, angle of view, closest focus, magnification, filter size, dimensions and weight for the original are from Mamiya's 645AF Interchangeable Lenses instruction sheet (cameramanuals.org); the D lens's figures come only from the Wikipedia lens table and match Mamiya's.
Adorama's listing for the original gives 82 × 78.9 mm and 620 g against Mamiya's 80.5 × 79 mm and 540 g, and 1:8.3 magnification against Mamiya's 0.12×. The maker's figures are carried in the table.
The 2000 first year is inferred, not sourced: the lens is missing from Mamiya's launch-era sheet and present on the later one, and Mamiya America's spring 2000 brochure counts nine lenses available. See original_research.
No source consulted gives the aperture blade count, a list price, or the year of the D version.

How to tell them apart (expand)

AF 150mm f/3.5 with or without D on the name ring; no aperture ring, unlike the manual-focus Sekor C 150mm f/3.5 of the M645 mount
Both versions are 5 elements in 5 groups, focus to 1.5 m and take 58 mm filters (Mamiya sheet; Wikipedia table)

Mamiya AF 150mm f/3.5 (original):

Name ring reads AF 150mm f/3.5 with no D; no aperture ring (Mamiya instruction sheet)
Mamiya's instruction sheet: 5 elements in 5 groups, 26° angle of view, f/32 minimum, 1.5 m closest focus, 0.12× magnification, 58 mm filter, bayonet hood, 80.5 mm long, 79 mm diameter, 540 g
Focus collar slides forward for AUTO FOCUS and back for manual, as on all the telephoto lenses (645AFD manual)

Mamiya AF 150mm f/3.5 D:

D after the aperture on the name ring
Wikipedia's lens table gives the D the same 5 elements in 5 groups, 1.5 m, 58 mm filter and 540 g as the original

Mamiya AF 150mm f/3.5 (original): Absent from Mamiya's launch-era 645AF lens sheet, which lists five lenses, and present on the later sheet with the 35mm, MF 120mm macro and the two zooms. Mamiya America's brochure of spring 2000 counts nine lenses then available. The 2000 date is this catalog's inference from those two documents; see original_research.
Mamiya AF 150mm f/3.5 D: The digital-era version, with figures identical to the original in the Wikipedia table. Camera-wiki's autumn 2008 list still shows the plain AF 150mm f/3.5, so the D came later, in the Phase One era. Wikipedia glosses D as optimised for digital sensors, and Damien Demolder's 2015 field test says the Phase One-era lenses carry redesigned coatings and an adjusted exit light path. No source consulted dates the D. The Sekor AF 150mm f/2.8 IF D and the Schneider-Kreuznach 150mm f/3.5 LS are different lenses.

What reviewers say

Teo Totev, t-e-o.net (Mamiya 645 and Phase One lens test) (blog) — Rated good, with sharpness 5 and bokeh 6 out of 10, behind the 80mm, 45mm and 55mm and level with the 35mm for sharpness; the non-D lenses were tested with autofocus only.
Tyler Longfellow, Emulsive (5 Frames with Lomography Potsdam Kino 100 on a Mamiya 645 AFD) (blog) — Five frames with the 150mm f/3.5 on a 645 AFD, chosen because he needed to use the lens more often; the piece is about the film, with the body's meter called always spot on and no verdict on the lens beyond the pictures.

History

The AF 150mm f/3.5 is the portrait telephoto of the Mamiya 645 AF line, a 26° lens that stands in for a 93mm on 35mm film. Mamiya’s instruction sheet gives five elements in five groups, f/32 minimum, 1.5 m closest focus at 0.12×, a 58 mm filter thread shared with the 80mm and 210mm, a bayonet hood, 80.5 mm length, 79 mm diameter and 540 g. There is no aperture ring, the aperture being set from the body, and the focus collar slides forward for autofocus and back for manual like the other telephotos. It is a different lens from the manual-focus Sekor C 150mm f/3.5 of the M645 mount, which has the same five-element construction but an aperture ring and no electronics.

The lens was not in the launch line. Mamiya’s earliest 645AF lens sheet lists the 45, 55, 80, 210 and 300; the later sheet adds the 35, the 150, the MF 120mm macro and the two zooms, and Mamiya America’s spring 2000 brochure says nine lenses were then available. The catalog therefore gives 2000 as the first year and marks it as inference. Two versions exist: the original AF 150mm f/3.5, still the version on camera-wiki’s autumn 2008 list, and the AF 150mm f/3.5 D of the Phase One era, which Wikipedia lists with identical construction, closest focus, filter and weight. Wikipedia glosses the D as optimised for digital sensors, and Damien Demolder’s 2015 field test describes redesigned coatings and an adjusted exit light path behind unchanged barrels. No source consulted dates the D. The faster Sekor AF 150mm f/2.8 IF D and the Schneider-Kreuznach 150mm f/3.5 LS for the 645DF are different lenses.

Reviews are thinner than for the 45 and 80, which Popular Photography tested and this lens was not. Teo Totev’s comparison on digital backs puts it in his good tier with 5 for sharpness and 6 for bokeh, behind the 80mm, 45mm and 55mm. Tyler Longfellow shot five frames with it on a 645 AFD for Emulsive and offered no verdict beyond the pictures. Adorama’s listing describes it as ideal for portraiture, and gives 620 g and 82 × 78.9 mm where Mamiya’s sheet says 540 g and 80.5 × 79 mm; the maker’s figures are used here.

When buying, check the rear electronic contacts, that the focus collar clicks between its two positions, and that the body drives focus smoothly from 1.5 m to infinity. Listings mix AF, 645AF, AFD and Phase One; the manual-focus 150mm f/3.5 and 150mm f/3.5 N of the M645 mount, the A 150mm f/3.8 N/L leaf-shutter lens, and the AF 150mm f/2.8 D are not this lens.

What remains open: the exact introduction date, the aperture blade count, list prices, and the year of the D version.
