I picked my 50-200mm up at bestbuy for $149.99. For the money it is great,  but definitely falls short of the 50-150mm.  If you are filling the frame and don't need to crop it takes very acceptable images,  but once you start to crop it struggles.   The 50-150mm allows you to crop an incredible incredible amount prior to the image looking bad.

That being said,  the OIS, autofocus,  and electronic aperture control makes it better than any adapted lens in a comparable apert

ure range.
