My own emperical evidence shows that the 24/2.8 is one very fine
performer.  I am very pleased with it on the E-1.  However, the real
sleeper in the bunch is the 35/2.8.  This particular lens produces
some of the most incredible bokeh and pleasing images.  For B&W
digital conversions, I much prefer the images from the 24/2.8 and
35/2.8 than the DZ lenses.

It is nice to see how well the lowly 24/2.8 does hold up to Canon's
greatest.  I'd expect the Canon lens to outperform--duh, but the
Zuiko held its own rather nicely.  Even where it was a "dog" it was
still pretty decent.
