Pick Model A if you need a wider starting focal length (10mm vs. 18mm) and a more consistent aperture range, especially for video or low-light wide-angle shots. Choose Model B if extra telephoto reach (200mm vs. 100mm) is critical and you can accept a dimmer maximum aperture at the long end. Budget is nearly identical, so the decision hinges on whether ultra-wide or super-telephoto matters more for your shooting.
