Well, I own both (any jaws dropping to the floor in surprise?).  Mostly they
are just ---- different.

The 75-150 is smaller and a little faster.  The 100-200 covers a higher
range at the top.  In the end, it just comes down to what I am using them
for.  For a general purpose 'walking around' zoom, I almost always go for
the 75-150.  For a lightweight soccer zoom, I go for the 100-200.

Both nice lenses, at the economy end of the OM scale. Both fairly
inexpensive.

If I just could have one, it would be the 75-150.
