#SundayOnAPH , forum and announcements day - share us your thoughts about the projects we aired this week so that we can make the coming weeks more suited for your needs - #ThankYou for being with us-
This weeks #PhotoContestTheme is #TimketChallange,We been receiving incredible pictures for the contest,Make sure to send @APH2017 before Tuesday evening 2:00 Lt.The contest starts Wednesday morning
Monday is here - #APHPhotographyCourse #ExposureTriangle #Aperture - We will start the course 5:00, stays tuned & #LearnSomethingNewToday -Submit ur pics for #PhotoContest #TimketChallange @APH2017
•Last week we started the course on #ExposureTriangle and we discussed about the #ISO setting - Today we will see the second setting from exposure triangle, #Aperture -
•Understanding Aperture plays a great roll in your photography StayTuned and #LearnSomethingNewToday @APHub -
•I’ve been writing a series of posts on elements that photographers need to learn in order to get out of Auto mode and learn how to manually set the exposure of their shots. I’ve largely focussed upon three elements of the ‘exposure triangle‘ – ISO, Shutter Speed and Aperture. I’ve previously written about #ISO setting and today I would like to turn your attention to Aperture.
•Before I start with the explanations let me say this. If you can master aperture you put into your grasp real creative control over your camera. In my opinion – aperture is where a lot of the magic happens in photography and as we’ll see below, changes in it can mean the difference between one dimensional and multi dimensional shots.

•What is Aperture?
#Aperture controls how much light enters the camera .
•When you hit the shutter release button of your camera a hole opens up that allows your cameras image sensor to catch a glimpse of the scene you’re wanting to capture. The aperture that you set impacts the size of that hole. The larger the hole the more light that gets in – the smaller the hole the less light.
•Aperture is measured in ‘f-stops’.
•You’ll often see them referred as
f/number – for example f/2.8, f/4, f/5.6,f/8,f/22 etc. Moving from one f-stop to the next doubles or halves the size of the amount of opening in your lens (and the amount of light getting through).
•One thing that causes a lot of new photographers confusion is that large apertures (where lots of light gets through) are given f/stop smaller numbers and smaller apertures (where less light gets through) have larger f-stop numbers.
So f/2.8 is in fact a much larger aperture than f/22. It seems the wrong way around when you first hear it but you’ll get the hang of it.
e.g. Setting #Aperture to F/2.8 means ...
- Large Aperture
- Shallow Depth of field (DOP)
- Expensive lens
- Great for low light photography
e.g. Setting #Aperture to F/22 means ...
- Small Aperture
- Flat Depth of field (DOP)
- Relatively cheaper lens

Depth of Field and Aperture
There are a number of results of changing the aperture of your shots that you’ll want to keep in mind as you consider your setting but the most noticeable one will be the depth of field that your shot will have.
Depth of Field (DOF) is that amount of your shot that will be in focus.
Large depth of field means that most of your image will be in focus whether it’s close to your camera or far away. (F/22)
Small (or shallow) depth of field means that only part of the image will be in focus and the rest will be fuzzy . (F/2.4)
Aperture has a big impact upon depth of field. Large aperture (remember it’s a smaller number) will decrease depth of field while small aperture (larger numbers) will give you larger depth of field.
The best way to get your head around aperture is to get your camera out and do some experimenting. Go outside and find a spot where you’ve got items close to you as well as far away and take a series of shots with different aperture settings from the smallest setting to the largest. You’ll quickly see the impact that it can have and the usefulness of being able to control aperture.

Some styles of photography require large depths of field (and small Apertures)
For example in most landscape photography you’ll see small aperture settings (large numbers) selected by photographers. This ensures that from the foreground to the horizon is relatively in focus.
On the other hand in portrait photography it can be very handy to have your subject perfectly in focus but to have a nice blurry background in order to ensure that your subject is the main focal point and that other elements in the shot are not distracting. In this case you’d choose a large aperture (small number) to ensure a shallow depth of field.
•Large aperture = Small f-number = Shallow (small) depth of field.
•Small aperture = Larger f-number = Deeper (larger) depth of field

Summarizing Depth of field
•Increase depth of field
* Narrow your aperture (larger f-number)
* Move farther from the subject
* Shorten focal length
•Decrease depth of field
* Widen your aperture (smaller f-number)
* Move closer to the subject
* Lengthen your focal length
Take control of your depth of field. Understanding how these adjustments control your it will greatly improve your photography.

Intro To Crop Frame Vs. Full Frame
When it comes to sensor sizes, the two terms most used to classify them are “full frame” and “crop sensor”. The term “full frame” refers to a sensor size that has the same dimensions as the 35mm film format. Why is 35mm format considered to be the standard or a “full frame”? Well, the 35mm film format has been the standard in film gauge since 1909 due to its balance in cost and image quality and has stuck ever since. So which sensor type is the best fit for your photography? Let’s find out.
Difference between Full Frame and Crop Sensor
A crop sensor refers to any sensor smaller than a full frame sensor or a 35mm film frame. The common types of crop sensor include APS-C and micro 4/3 systems. Aside from the difference in physical size of the sensor, there are several other differences between a crop sensor and a full frame sensor.
•Full Frame vs. Crop Sensor , Field of View and Focal Length
The most visible difference between full frame and crop sensor is their field of view. In fact the term “crop” implies just exactly that.
•E.g. Full frame DSLR like a Nikon D800 and a crop-sensor DSLR like a Nikon D7100 take the same photo from the same distance, with the same lens and point of view, the D7100 will capture a tighter field of view than the D800.
•Focal length measurements on lenses are based on the 35mm standard. If you are using a crop frame camera the sensor is cropping out the edges of the frame, which is effectively increasing the focal length.
