Maybe I'm spoiled because I picked up a Leica projector quite cheaply? There is a huge difference between looking at slides on a Kodak carousel and a Leica, I couldn't believe it when I got the Leica.
Yes, a good lens makes a big difference on a projector. When one spends good money on an expensive camera lens, why project with a cheap projector lens? I put a Schneider Vario-Prolux MC 70-120 f/2.8 on my Kodak and the difference is quite noticeable over the stock Kodak lens that came with the projector. May not match up to a Leica, though.
