I don't get it ... what's with everyone?? The OP asked for an opinion about two specific zoom lenses based on his stated criteria and yet rather than responding to his question in a responsive, helpful or constructive manner, several of you insist on interjecting personal lectures about your approach to lens selection and be unnecessarily critical of his choices.
Note, his question did not ask whether you think it's a wise choice to pair up a "cheap" lens with a $1,500 camera. He simply wanted to know which of the two zoom lenses he wishes to purchase is better.
I would be willing to bet for those of you who commented negatively that you have never even seen or used either of the two zoom lenses.
Frankly, these types of responses offer no value because they fail to be responsive to the OP's issues. I don't mean to flame anyone, but one poster responded to the question which involved two zoom lenses with the suggestion that he pick up a prime lens! Now, we can debate until we're blue in the face about the pros and cons of zoom v. prime (if you'll note my signature, I favor the latter), but that wasn't his question, so the post was completely unresponsive.

NOTE BENE: I realize that I don't have a helpful suggestion for the OP and I've engaged in the same behaviour that I've criticized others for, so for that I apologize in advance for wasting bandwidth and your time.
