the 50-200 is my favourite.

There is a saying - "All lenses are equal on f8". 130mm f8 is not 200mm f5.6.

50-200 at 130f8

Only that the S doesn't even go above 150mm, so the saying is irrelevant.

The 50-150 is in my radar for some time know but because I professionaly use mostly Canon Cine cameras with the L lenses or Zeiss/Leica primes (and in our company we have 3 Canon Cine lenses), and the recent abandonment of the NX series I am reluctant to "invenst", but the 50-200 for what it is, and what it worths, is maybe the best cheap zoom I have ever used. I think NX cheap zooms are excellent Choices (especially 12-24, 50-200, 16-50, and even the 20-50 and 18-55 for what they cost).
