Camera Clubs and Fine Art Photography : the Social Construction of an Elite Code
In establishing the medium as a fine art form, photographers have sought to make distinctions between art photography and all other uses of the medium, both amateur and professional. Drawing upon ethnographic research comparing the activities of camera club and fine art photography, the evolution of an elite visual aesthetic is examined.

Fine art codes are viewed as symbolic mechanisms of social differentiation.
