Cell Phone vs. Camera Experiment

Donation protected
I am Amber Robbins, an aspiring photographer.  I am traveling to New York City to take pictures of famous landmarks.  I'd like to create a book that compares the difference between pictures taken with a camera phone and pictures taken with a Digital SLR. 

I'd like to find out which way is better suited for taking pictures in a touristy environment.  I am also applying for a local high school program called Commonwealth Gorvernor's School.  I need three projects completed to apply, and contributing to this will help me get there.

I will be driving to NYC with my dad.  We'll walk around the city, taking pictures of all of the famous landmarks just like other tourists would.  I will use two cameras: an iPhone 4 and a Pentax *ist.

I am making a protype of the book for my CGS application, but there will be a final copy that will be available for purchase.  See the contributions below to see how you can help support this project.
