Photography Basics: Aperture, Shutter Speed, and ISO

Understanding the fundamental elements of exposure: aperture, shutter speed, and ISO, and how they work together to create stunning images.

Photography Basics: Aperture, Shutter Speed, and ISO

Mastering exposure is crucial for great photos.

Aperture

  • Controls depth of field (DOF)
  • Wider aperture (smaller f-number) = shallow DOF
  • Narrower aperture (larger f-number) = deep DOF

Shutter Speed

  • Controls motion blur
  • Fast shutter speed freezes motion
  • Slow shutter speed creates blur

Balancing these elements is key to photography.
