Does the "sunny 16" exposure rule apply to
digicams?

Only as a rough guide.
You will discover that it is often too dark with either digital or slide
film.
You'll have to experiement with your camera.
As for my 10D, 16 is usually too dark.
F11 is closer--but then it varies a lot due to atmospheric conditions and
other factors.
