Aperture - the pitfalls
Beware that when we talk about apertures high numbers (16 or 22) indicate small openings and low numbers (2,8 or 4) mean large openings.
The smaller the aperture, the larger depth of field.

Maximum Aperture or Lens Speed
The "maximum aperture" of a lens is also called its "lens speed". Aperture and shutterspeed are interrelated via exposure.

Using a long-focal-length lens Focusing on near objects APERTURE The aperture, or f/stop as it is commonly called, is used to regulate the diameter of the lens opening. That controls the luminance on the film plane.
Aperture
The aperture, or the iris, essentially determines how much light is going to be let in. Logically, the more you open it up the more light is let in and the more you close it the less light is let in.
Aperture Priority: The “A' setting on your camera gives priority to the aperture setting.
Aperture
The aperture is the opening formed by the blades of the iris or diaphragm in the lens, through which light passes to expose the film. Aperture size is usually given in f-numbers, the larger the number, the smaller the opening.
Aperture in Photography
Whether you shoot film or digital, your camera acquires images through the interplay of three primary exposure settings -- shutter speed, ISO (International Organization for Standardization) setting or film speed, and, ...
Aperture Size
Aperture size is described by the ƒ-stop, or ƒ-number. This is actually a ratio of the focal length of the lens divided by the effective aperture diameter (the actual opening diameter).
Aperture
Aperture refers to the lens diaphragm on a camera that controls the amount of light that touches the film when the shutter opens. Settings for an aperture opening are measured in f-numbers, also known as the F-Stop.
Aperture

Apertures
As well as letting more or less light into the camera the size of the aperture you choose governs the 'Depth of Field'. Depth of field means the amount of the picture, from foreground to background, that is in sharp focus.
Aperture
Interestingly enough, each time you descend from one aperture opening to the next, or stop down, such as from f/4 to f/5.6, the amount of light passing through the lens is cut in half.
Aperture and Depth of Field (DOF)
We mentioned this above but feel it is important enough to repeat in its own paragraph.
The Depth of Field is the distance wherein objects are in focus.

No, it didn't help...I cannot grasp the photography terms you are using. Like I said, we are all wired differently,... Photons?
Aperture and f/stop The other control is aperture. This is analogous to how much you open the faucet. If water just drips out you will need some combination of a longer shutter speed or a very small bucket (ISO).

Further Aperture Resources
I hope you've enjoyed this fast paced introduction to Apple's photo management application.
Aperture is measured by F-Stop on your camera controls. F-Stop settings represent a ratio derived from the size of the lens opening and focal length.
Aperture settings are called f-stops and indicate the size of the aperture opening. Each f-stop lets in half as much light as the next larger opening and twice as much light as the next smaller opening.
Aperture and f-stop are two photographic terms for the same thing. Aperture, or f-stop, is the camera's setting that determines the width of the passageway for incoming light. Inside lenses, there are blades that form an opening.
Aperture => Quantity of Light
Shutter Speed => Duration of Light
These two things work together to help you control the exposure and look of your image.
The aperture setting of a lens is a measure of how wide the lens opens and is represented as a fraction of the lens' focal length (e.g. f/1.4, f/2, f/2.8, f/4).
The aperture controls the depth of field - that's the area in front and behind the subject that retains sharp detail. The smaller the aperture, the deeper the area of apparent sharpness in the frame.
Large apertures (small f-stop numbers) result in small depth of field. This can be very useful technique if you want to highlight only part of the image or blur out distracting objects in the background. The eye will gravitate to the area in focus.

Aperture - A small, circular opening inside the lens that can change in diameter to control the amount of light reaching the
camera's sensor as a picture is taken.
Aperture - Refers to the camera's adjustable opening (also known as a diaphragm or iris) that allows light to reach the camera's sensor (or film). The size of the aperture is measured using an f-number also called the f-stop (F8, f/8, etc).
Aperture
The aperture is a circular hole in the front of the camera lens, which controls the amount of light passes on to the sensor or film. It is adjustable and can describe it as the iris of the eye.
Aperture - Behind the lens of your camera is a small, circular opening that can change in diameter to control the amount of light reaching the camera's sensor as a picture is taken.
Aperture - the size of the opening in the lens that determines the amount of light that falls onto the DSLR's sensor.
Aperture
The aperture is the hole inside the lens that allows light through. Aperture is measured in "f" numbers - a ratio of the diameter of the hole and the focal length of the lens.
Aperture
With waterfall imagery, the aperture is often one of the last things to be decided. The shutterspeed is, generally, resolved first in order to determine the amount of blurring of the water.
APERTURE- Find a volunteer, a flashlight, and a partially darkened room. Look closely into the eye of your volunteer. Examine the size of the person's pupil (the black, center portion of the eye).
aperture
An adjustable piece of equipment inside a camera that lies between the lens. and shutter. Light comes through the lens, gets funneled through the aperture that has been selected, and then recorded by the image sensor.
Aperture: Variable opening that controls the amount of light passing through it. Size measured in 'f' stops. Large apertures [wide] such as f2.8 let in lots of light and give shallow Depth of field.
Aperture
On the camera itself there are many different settings for aperture. They normally come in the form of odd looking decimals that don't really seem to be of use to anyone. But, they are indeed logical numbers.

Aperture
Is the size of the opening in the camera lens when the light "exposes" the camera sensor. The aperture controls how much light is let through the lens. This opening is expressed as f-values.
Aperture, F-stop A camera's aperture works like the iris of your eye, expanding and contracting to adjust the amount of light which passes through. The smaller the aperture, the less light it admits.
Aperture
An adjustable opening through which light enters through the camera's lens. The larger the aperture is, the greater the camera's photosensitivity. A smaller aperture, however, gives greater depth of field to a picture.
Aperture/Focal Stop (F-Stop): The f-stop setting determines how much light is permitted to come through the lens. The lower the f-stop number, the more light the lens allows.
Aperture (of lens). Size of the lens opening through which light passes. The relative aperture is calibrated in f-numbers, being the diameter of the beam of light allowed to pass through the lens, divided into its focal length.
Aperture
Lens opening. The hole or opening formed by the metal leaf diaphragm inside the lens or the opening in a camera lens through which light passes to expose the film. The size of aperture is either fixed or adjustable.
Aperture
Similar to the iris in the human eye, the aperture allows a certain amount of light through the lens to the sensor. The amount is determined by the aperture size, or the size of the opening in the iris.

APERTURE
Aperture is the opening in the lens where light enters. If the opening is large, ample lighting will enter the lens. As the opening gets smaller, less light will enter.
APERTURE, EXPOSURE AND FILTERS
So the conditions are right and the camera is in its best possible format to record the image as you want it. Now you have to work out the details of the photograph, the exposure.
Aperture. The lens opening formed by the iris diaphragm inside the lens. The size is variable and is adjusted by the aperture control.
