1. Visual versus Verbal languages.
2. "Narrative" versus "Documentary" styles.
3."Fictions and Fantasies, Emotions and Commitments" versus "Facts."
4. Concern with audience impact versus "veracity".
5. "Interactivity" versus "stability" of knowledge.
6. "Hypertext" linking and logic versus "linear" logic.
7. "Globalization" versus "cultural relativism"

And there are also a number of difficult issues, many of which were present in more traditional visual anthropology and documentary photography, which some of the earlier documentary photographers such as John Collier have raised:

8. To what extent can surface reporting even of visual realities reveal underlying structures?
9. To what extent can any reportage avoid "objectifying" (and hence providing the grounds for controlling) its subjects?
10. To what extent can visual anthropology, and ethnodigitography escape from the discipline's somewhat tarnished traditional alliance with colonization? To what extent can it become liberating?
These and other issues are developed further in an earlier paper, "Photodocumentary and Visual Ethnography in a Postmodern Digital World."

Perhaps a greater role for the traditional "subjects" of both artists and researchers might provide a way out of some of these dilemmas.
