What is aperture and how does it work?
Aperture affects the lighting in your picture. The larger the hole in the lens is, the brighter the image will be. While the smaller the hole, the darker the picture will be since it doesn’t let as much light in.
Aperture also affects depth of field. It affects how far the image is focused. For example, the image could be focused solely on the centre of the image or it could be focused on the whole image.
You are able to adjust aperture settings on your camera by turning the dial to the small ‘A’, then spinning the small wheel at the front of the camera.
