    I don't believe it's possible to cut 150 GBs from 50 GBs. Regardless, you cannot change a Boot Camp partition without first removing the one you now have by using Boot Camp Assistant to remove the partition and then create a new one. Alternatively, you can purchase a third-party utility that can do what you want non-destructively and within reason. The utility is called Camptune X 10.4.

    Only after 50GB everything is clear. So thanks a lot. Actually I did cut now about 190Gb from Windows on bootcamp, so on OS X 10.10.3 I have now about 650GB - my total solid state memory about 800Gb. I have used the newest version that also fits for my Yosemite (as X 10.4 - do not), it is version Camptune X_10.7.561 from Paragon Software.
