Hi,

IMHO 50/2 is more versatile than 35/3,5. I have got a ZD 50/2 and is 
superb for portrait and macro purposes. Hair-raising resolution and 
contrast but also a creamy sharming bokeh. You can read about both 
lenses here:

35/3,5

The best magazine testing lenses is www.colorfoto.de
You can buy any test for a small amount but you can also have a look 
here and see what they wrote about Zuiko lenses:

Hope this could help you to decide which one is more suitable for you.
