About Aperture
Changes:
Depth of field (how much is in focus vs. blurry)
How much light the frame is exposed to
Wide Aperture (low f/ number, shallow depth, more light): Only a little in focus and a lot blurred
Narrow Aperture (high f/ number, deep depth, less light): Everything in focus
When/Why
Wide Aperture (Low f-number, shallow depth, more light):
Cinematic shots where you want the subject in focus while blurring the background.
Creates a visually appealing separation between the subject and the surroundings.
Narrow Aperture (High f-number, deep depth, less light):
Everything in the frame sharp and in focus
Ex: landscape shots or documentary interviews.
