18-150 or 55-200 for landscape?

Hi!

I just registered here, but I have read this forum many many years!

I have now M + M3 and 11-22mm, 15-45mm + 22mm for landscape photography. I've been quite happy, but I need more reach. At the moment I have 5d3 + 70-200 for more reach, but I would like to leave them home too, so I could hike with smaller and lighter camera bag.

Question is, should I buy Ef-m 18-150mm or Ef-m 55-200mm? Which has better image quality for landscapes? If watching Digital picture's site, 55-200 is a clear winner, but how is that in real world / with other copies? 18-150 would be great for travel, too, but 55-200 is cheaper and has little more reach. I know 18-150 would be better deal as a kit lens with M5 or M6, but that's too much money at the moment. (And I'm not interested in Ef-s or third party lenses.)

Hoping for your comments and great Black Friday deals, thanks!
