This Chart Shows How Aperture, Shutter Speed, and ISO Affect Your Photos. Thorin Klosowski April 21, 2015 Learning ... how certain settings can increase noise, and how focus changes.

What’s even more clever is that each main f-stop setting lets through half as much light (or twice as much) as the next. This is also how shutter speeds and ISO settings work, and why you can ...

The aperture setting is measured in f-stop values, with apertures such as f/1.4 and f/2.8 often referred to as 'wide' apertures, as they have the widest opening and let in the most light, ...

In the previous lesson we covered the basic settings on your camera. Today we're jumping into the fun stuff: manual mode. We'll learn the details about shutter speed, ISO, and aperture, as well as ...

Of course, there are more aperture settings than just f/2.8 and f/16. Some lenses may open as wide as f/1.4, or stop down to f/22 and beyond. As with shutter speed and ISO, aperture controls ...

Setting your aperture setting to f2.8 will yield shallower depth of field than setting it to f11. Another way to think of it is that a smaller number means less depth of field.

So Rule No. 5 is not only about aperture but controlling the depth of field of the photo. Some may think that if some depth of field is good, more is better. The answer to that is: sometimes.
