Don't have the budget for either at the moment

But if I did, I think I'd go for the 75 first.

Why? for the brighter aperture.  I have the 40-150 which is fine in good light.  But if I'm shooting in say a cemetery by moonlight, that extra stop comes in handy, if only to see what I'm shooting.

Of course, ideally, I'd want both
