Good to hear from you on this, C.H.  I chose f16 for both 
lenses because I felt that was appropriate to what I was 
photographing in this case.  That stop is important to me 
to have and to use for proper DOF.  I'm not trying to make 
a case for either lens being better than the other, but I 
will use the 50/3.5 again in the future if I want that stop.

Thanks,
Joel W.
