I swapped them out on my old zenith 900 pro X, using a spare parts machine. It made no difference.But I cant say about other pj's.

Ok i did a phosphor grain focus test (Thank's Guy Kuo / Brian Smile ) on my new curved screen and the sharpness-angle seems different between the two... And the "sharpness-curve" would fit better if i swap them.

I think i do a swap after all and try it out. The case is that one lens is marked blue and the two others don't have any.

The lenses should all be the same unless they have built in Red and Green filters.

The only difference you will notice in the lenses is, they are not all made the same. In other words they are not sold in matched sets. Where this can be a problem is in convergence. If you are having a issue with convergence, try swapping lenses around to see if that helps the problem. Especially if your running the image out to the edge of the tube.
