I know these are crap lenses but which of the two types are better?

My VPH1000QM has the Delta TAC 3ML lenses at the moment.

Are the Delta TAC 4 lenses usable on my VPH1000QM, would they offer any inprovement?

The reason I ask is I might be able to get some cheap used tubes (to replace the 80,000 hour tubes in my PJ) from a local who also has some lenses that are Delta TAC 4.

I will be having a look at the tubes tomorrow and am considering buying the lenses as well if they are useable in my PJ or maybe if they could be of use to someone here, if they are useless to me but useful to someone here I may buy them too and start a for sale thread in the appropriate forum area.

He has other parts from the PJ these came from but those parts are useless to me, if the price is right I may get them too for the reason stated above, better than the bin getting them. Wink

The TAC4 lenses are the all plastic ones? They are not very good. If you can get some HD6 lenses you will see a big improvement. They are made of mostly glass lenses and are alot sharper.
