All modern lenses have anti reflective coatings. Very few have internal Red and Green color filters.

Galen,as I remember,prefers the HD-145 color filtered lenses but I can tell you the color filtered HD-144's have VERY good corner and center focus.

I use the color filtered HD-144 that Galen mounted for me in HD-8 mounts for my Barco 808. VERY happy with them !

essentially the only difference is throw distance.... in a nutshell.

yeah, no performance difference between color filtered HD-145 (or 145N) and HD-144 lenses.

Throw distance for HD-144 is approx. 1.33x screen-width, and for HD-145(N) it is approx. 1.40x screen-width.

What is XG-110 originally with? 144 or 145?

XG1100G should have been with HD-144. But the HD-145(N) was an available as an option as well.
The XG1350G used the HD-145(N).
