Amount of lens flare is similar, however both can be better than the other in specific situations at specific angles. It is very easy to misrepresent one as better than the other by cherry picking stills or taking videos at different times in different lighting situations.

Claims of extreme lens flare are false. Other claims of vignetting and distortion are grossly exaggerated through the use of improper testing equipment and methodology. It is not known whether this is due to malice or simple incompetence.

Occasional colour differences exist as sometimes LPMRs will automatically perform some colour grading at different times.
