Here are my two images, one at Sunny 16 and the other opened up one stop. From my perspective I think somewhere in between would be right but I don't have the best of monitors.

Your lens has a t-stop that is about half a stop slower than the measured f-stop. Sunny 16 doesn't take that into account.

Well now you've told me that I can take it into account (for that lens of course) - but seriously, if a rule of thumb is accurate to within half a stop I think most would be happy with that, wouldn't they?
