We compare the large scale galaxy clustering in the new SDSS early data release (EDR) with the clustering in the APM Galaxy Survey. We cut out pixel maps (identical in size and shape) from the SDSS and APM data to allow a direct comparison of the clustering. Here we concentrate our analysis on an equatorial SDSS strip in the South Galactic Cap (EDR/SGC) with 166 deg^2, 2.5 wide and 65 degrees long. Only galaxies with Petrosian magnitudes 16.8
