Professional Camera or IPhone 5?

For Christmas this year, I have to chose between a camera (Canon Powershot SX510 HS Digital Camera Bundle) from Costco or an IPhone, probably the 5. What do you guys think I should get?

P.S. I'm asking so early because I want to help my parent pay for it and I need to know how much I should save.

It depends on what you want it for the most. If you want good pictures get the camera. The camera on any cell phone is nowhere near as good as a good camera.

However if you would get more use out of a phone then get a phone but be aware the iPhone 5 is not the latest technology and there are better phones available.

I can't imagine why anyone would call that camera "professional".

Iphone 5 has good camera. Also iphoe 5 updates her camera software automaticly from internet then it gets to Wi-Fi. For porffesional camera you need to plug into pc and then update it manumaly
