Aperture explained

What is Aperture  Aperture is one third of the exposure triangle, the others being the shutter speed and iso.   It  is the opening inside your lens, light travels through that opening to your camera sensor.  Aperture affects  exposure and depth of field.  Aperture can expand on contract, it is  represented by f-stops / f number. The smaller the f-stop number is the wider the Aperture,  more  light enters the camera. The larger the f-stop the smaller the Aperture, Less light enters the camera,  when you change your f-stop number it affects the exposure.   Aperture affects your depth of field, a smaller  f- stop number gives you a shallow depth of field, the  background is blurry. A larger f-stop gives you a sharper depth of field, background is in focus  When would you use a shallow depth of field  vs a sharper depth of field. If you are taking a portrait and you want that classic portrait look with the background out of focus then you would use a sma

EXPOSURE TRIANGLE The exposure triangle consists of the SHUTTER SPEED, APERTURE AND ISO.  They all work together to produce an image.  Each element affects the image differently so knowing how they work will help you on your way to be a better photographer. SHUTTER SPEED The shutter speed is the speed at which the shutter opens and closes. The slower the shutter speed, more light enters the camera. The faster the shutter speed less light enters the camera. The shutter speed also affects motion; lets say you are shooting a fast moving subject and you want to freeze the motion, you would then use a fast shutter speed. But let say you want the subject to be blurred then you would use a slow shutter speed.  fast shutter speed slow shutter speed APERTURE The Aperture is the opening inside your lens where light travels through the opening to the camera sensor. The aperture is represented by f-stop or f-numbers. If you look on your camera you
