I give it a fast try... @50mm the 50-200 is a bit less sharper in the center but is more costant corner to corner, althrough my 50-200 is softer on the right side and my 18-55 is softer on the left side.

Take tripod, using two lenses you'll have both sides sharp!

The 50-200 is f4 and seems to have a better OIS, so if do not conseder the size it is a winner. f4+ois = f2 so only big advantages of the 45mm seems to be bokeh and size
