Aperture

Aperture

Aperture is a hole/opening which light travels through making an image have a shallow depth of field, deep depth of field or more or less light depending on the number the aperture is on.

If the aperture is on a low number more light is let through but this can make the image more blurry, if it is on a high number less light is passed through the camera but the image may be sharper.

If I were to use a low aperture whilst taking a photo I would take a picture at night or in a dark place as I need more light to see what’s happening on the picture e.g. in a concert or doing band photography.

If I were to use a high aperture whilst taking a picture I would take a photo of scenery or landscape as it would be sharper and nothing would be out of focus.
