Understanding Aperture




Small Depth of Field



Aperture: f/4.0 Shutter Speed: 1/100 ISO: 800



Large Depth of Field


Aperture: f/5.0 Shutter Speed: 1/25 ISO: 800


Aperture is the size of the opening in the lens that permits light to hit the film/digital sensor. Technically, Aperture works by allowing more or less light to come in the lens creating a shallow or large depth of field respectively. Visually, Aperture works by separating the subject from the background or creating a clear focus. Low aperture needs a high shutter speed and ISO stays the same
