Leica has recently reduced the price of the Pradovit 2002.

AFAIK the Zeiss P-Sonnar for 35mm projectors is no longer produced.

It tested better than the Colorplan in an long ago projector lens test,
but in the meanwhile Leitz has introduced the Super-Colorplan, which
should be equal to Zeiss and other advanced projecting lenses made by
Schneider, Docter and ISCO.
I personaly think, there will be no big difference among the group of
high quality lenses. Leica says, to see the difference between the
Colorplan and the Super-Colorplan, you have to perfect aligne the
projector, use a high grade screen and glass mounts (the best, there are
big differences between slide mounts themself).  When you have removed
the el cheapo plastic (zoom) lenses from your projector, then you have
done the main work for good projecting.
