100-300 vs 40-150 Pro
2

My conclusion regarding the 100-300 is the same I always had: The IQ of my 100-300 is better than my 50-200 + 1.4TC at the center of the frame, and it seems your 100-300 and 40-150 are pretty close at the center of the frame. Exactly what I'd expect with my copies.

Of course the 40-150 has other benefits, like faster lens, weather sealed, better at the corners, less CA. But if center sharpness is all you care about, the 100-300 is excellent.
