Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Aperture But Were Afraid to Ask (VIDEO)
Most photographers understand the interaction between aperture settings (f/stops) and shutter speeds for arriving at proper exposures. But in the basic tutorial below you’ll learn why aperture settings also play an important role in composition, setting up your shot, and much more.
