Verdict
Pick Model A if you need a wide-angle zoom for landscapes, architecture, or low-light interiors and value image stabilization. Choose Model B if your priority is reach for wildlife, sports, or distant subjects and you can work with a slower, variable aperture. Model A stays the better choice if consistent f/4 brightness and ultra-wide coverage matter more than telephoto reach, while Model B wins on budget and long-range flexibility.
