I\'m currently reading An American Century of Photograpy: From Dry Plate to Digital.
In the early part of the 20th century, the big issues in the photographic world were:
-Professional Photographers were concerned that the new camera technologies made photography too easy for the masses and would soon put them out of business.
-Vitriolic discussion over whether photography (and certain types of photography) could be considered art.
-Heated arguments over the acceptability and desirability of photo-manipulation in various circumstances.
