But again, will the picture quality visibly improve with an anamorphic lens?
Absolutely, becuase with a lens, your vertical pixel size remains the same for all ARs as does the useage.

The image you see is made up of by the total (X) number of pixels on the panel, so why not max them all the time - a lens will let you do that, where zooming can not becuase you throw at least 25% of the vertical rez away.

If you have a 1080 projector and CIH, when watching 16:9 you have 1080 vertical pixels being used, and when watching Scope using the lens, you will also have 1080 vertical pixels being used. The best way to describe the CIH image is "dense", but in the end, seeing is believing...
