Verdict
Pick Model A if you need an ultra-wide-angle zoom for landscapes, architecture, or tight interiors and can accept a dimmer f/5.6 tele end. Choose Model B if you prioritize reach for wildlife, sports, or distant subjects and don’t require wide-angle coverage. Both share similar used pricing, so the decision hinges solely on focal-length needs.
