Verdict
Pick Model A if you prioritize still photography resolution and faster burst shooting for photos. Choose Model B if your focus is on professional-grade 4K video capabilities and more recent technology, despite the lower megapixel count. Budget is nearly identical, so the decision hinges solely on whether you need higher photo resolution or superior video performance. Neither offers in-body stabilization, so stabilization needs must be addressed externally.
