Ooops - I did forget to mentione one thing, and...

...that is that the 16-50 has a very welcomed 24 MM equivalent focal length on the wide end.  And this will make a huge difference when shooting scenarios like scenics, or interior shots (i.e. group photos or interior architectural shots).  You must keep in mind that the addition of just a couple of MM on the wide end is immediately noticeable (and welcomed), whereas small subtractions or additions on the long end aren't that noticeable.
