My tests show otherwise

In my experience, the Oly is the better lens. Since it's cheaper, I can only recommend the Panasonic for users if Panasonic bodies who need IS, or those who dislike the 60mm focal length.

I did several controlled tests between the two:

I have owned the PL 45 for over a year, and now have the 60. Here's my full review on the 60, if you're interested.
