I consider their lens tests as serious as possible. According to them, the 24/2.8 ASPH is excellent at every aperture and far beyond the old R 24mm/2.8. The R one is supposed to be soft in the edges between 2.8 and 5.6, but the ASPH is good even at 2.8. I can give you more detailed informations if you are interested. (Or you can have a look in archives of rec.photo.equipment.35mm or on the web. Several articles describe lens tests)
