Gentlemen, I don't think any 75-150/4 has a leading letter in front of the
Zuiko. I think that by consensus we have come to the conclusion that some
of the "consumer-grade" zooms (all MC) have the "S Zuiko" designation. But
the "F.Zuiko" "G.Zuiko" indicator of # of elements and SC-ness does not
apply to these zooms. My SC 75-150/4 has the lonely "Zuiko" sans anything.
Alas, I am very skeptical that you have seen an MC 75-150/4, John. :-(
