I agree of course, the 50-150 is freaking awesome. How many others have not just internal focus, but internal zoom as well? That said though, head to head with lenses in the same class the 50-200 offers unparalleled value and even though it's sharpness is less at 200 than the wide end, it's still sharper at 200 than the long ends of the competition from most other brands.

Also, I really enjoyed using the 50-200 with the Fotga macro tubes. My favorite, for many other lenses either the focus distance became too short for my preference or the magnification ratio wasn't improved as significantly.
