I don't own the lens, but owned the 2/150 (and still own the 2/35-100) and can definitely tell you, that the manual focus is not direct (real manual) but you give control commands with your hand to a motor drive, which is focusing the lens.
With the 2/150 this worked well.

It's electronic (AKA focus by wire). BTW I've owned one for 12 years so I know quite a bit about this lens.

How well does the 4/3 to M4/3 adapter work? It's always been alluring to have 600mm f/2.8 equivalent! And which camera do you use it on?

The MMC-3 works well with my 2/14-35 and my 2/35-100.
It also worked well with my 2/150 + TC-20.
Cameras: first E-M1, now also E-M1 MkII.
You will need one of these two because the other models (E-M5, E-M10, etc.) do not have phase detection but contrast detection, which is rather slow with FT-lenses.
