Verdict
Pick Model B if you need a wider starting focal length (28mm) and a brighter maximum aperture at the wide end (f/3.5) for lower-light situations, while saving 55 EUR. Choose Model A if you prioritize a longer minimum focal length (55mm) and are willing to pay more for a slightly narrower aperture at the wide end (f/4.5). Model B’s broader zoom range makes it the more versatile all-in-one option, but Model A may suit those who prefer telephoto framing without wide-angle needs.
