To those who have owned, or at least used, both: is there any appreciable difference in AF speed?

I had both. Yes, 55-200 focuses a lot better. In fact, focusing with 50-230 in slightly low light (ISO 1600-6400) was frustrating.

- was this a true A-B test where both lenses were tested at the same time and location?

- was the AF speed comparison made with both lenses using the same aperture?

Otherwise, there is no conclusion to be made.
