Verdict
Pick Model A if you need the wider 28 mm start and the brighter f/3.5 aperture at the short end for low-light or shallower depth-of-field shots. Model B stays the better choice if you prefer to save 15 EUR and can work without the extra 7 mm at the wide end or the half-stop aperture advantage.
