I own the 24mm Elmarit and though I have tried to shoot with it many times, I found that 95% of the pictures I took with it could have been taken with a 35mm as well.  And I believe this thread kinds of proves it as most pictures posted here could have easily been taken with a 35mm (except for Malabito's pictures) . Yet with 24mm, you get extra distortion and less ability to separate background than 35mm. 
This makes the 24mm as a focal for special projects, for crowded environment, when you want to get close and get the surroundings in the picture. A very difficult focal to use. At least from me. But made me want to try again, that is what is good about theses threads ;)

One of the advantages of a 24mm is that if used with care you can manage out distortion, much more so than with a 21mm, which makes it good for interior shots. You may be 'fooled' by this in not realising how much of a scene has been included. I have 35mm and 28mm, and the 24 has distinct advantages in certain situations, like greatly increased depth of field and/or including more foreground and  sky. I am a 50 guy and don't use it often, but glad I have got it.

Not sure why it is so unpopular to the point where Leica discontinued all 24's.
