Photos on iPhone4 much larger than 3Gs--cant copy all

I have just switched from a 3Gs to 4 (both 32GB). I have my photo options set to sync all photos, events and faces from iPhoto. On my 3Gs, my photo library (18,952 photos) took up 5.1 GB of space, but on the iPhone4 they take up 13.2 GB, and I get a message saying not all photos were copied because there was not enough space. I assume this is because the iPhone 4s higher resolution display allows for less downsampling when photos are synced. I like having all my photos on the phone, but dont want to take up all that space. Is there a way to force iTunes or iPhoto to sync lower-res photos to the iPhone 4?

Ive the same problem, but Im switching from an iPhone 3G to an iPhone 4, 16 GB both. Im really disappointed. Just happen with photos. Music, videos and all other files use the same space.
INFO 1: I exported the all my photos out of iPhoto and tried to sync from a folder: the same happens.
INFO 2: Ive make a test with other iPhone 4 and the problem was not repeated. I cant understand!!!
The operator (Movistar) does not have an answer for me and they will change the device. I hope it be a problem with my device and not an Iphone 4 issue.
Ill let you know wath happens with the new unit.
