Has anyone adapted a Christie .98 chip lens to a barcode dp2000 or viseversa?
What as the result? Thanks.

Incompatible. The optical part would be OK (a lens is a lens and the light engine outputs are probably identical) but the mount and electrical connectors are different. Back focus distance may be different as well.
