Verdict
Pick Model A if you need a versatile, wide-to-telephoto zoom with a brighter maximum aperture at the wide end and a more practical focal range for everyday shooting. Model B stays the better choice if budget is the top priority and you specifically require the extra reach to 300mm, accepting the narrower focal range and dimmer aperture.
