Understanding Aperture


Shallow Depth:
Large Depth:




Aperture is the size of the opening in the lens when a picture is taken.  The wider the aperture, the brighter the picture will be because more light is being let in.  The aperture in a camera adjusts how big the opening to let light in is, which is why the brightness is different when the aperture is different.  The aperture is on the top of the triangle because if the aperture isn't right, it is difficult for the picture to turn out well.  It also works alongside the shutter speed, which is why they are next to each other on the triangle.  The focal length also changes how clear or blurry the picture is.
