On a manually-operated camera exposures can be made or manipulated with the shutter speed and the aperture one of these controls the output of the flash do you know which one?

The answer is Aperture. The Shutter Speed does not affect Flash output. You can prove this by setting up a camera with a flash in a room where you can control the lighting. Photograph an object in the room until you determine the best flash exposure...such as F 5.6, F 8, etc. Now that you know the F stop (aperture) that allows the proper amount of flash, turn off the room lights so that there is virtually no ambient light in the room. Leaving your camera set to the correct aperture (F stop), take different exposures by changing the shutter speed each time while not changing the aperture. You will see for yourself that the flash exposure is the same with each exposure even if you try one shutter speed at 1/60 and another at 1/2 second. The shutter speeds would only make a difference in the overall exposure if there was existing ambient light...then the exposure would become light or darker depending on the shutter speed. With a slower shutter speed the scene would be brighter as more ambient light was taken in, but the shutter speed did not affect the flash, only the ambient light.

What does the aperture dial do on a camera?
The aperture ring changes the lens aperture which controls how much light reaches the film or digital sensor. A large aperture f/1.4 to f/2.8 = lots of light, fast shutter speeds, narrow depth of field A small aperture f/9+ = much less light, slower shutter speeds, wide depth of field
Do the aperture controls adjust the length of time the light strikes the sensor?
No, the aperture controls adjust the size of the opening that light enters the camera through (see image above, left maximum aperture setting, right minimum aperture setting).
What two parts of a camera controls the amount of light reaching the film?
The Shutter and the Aperture are the two controls the Shutter is used to control how long the Film is exposed for and Aperture is used to control how much light is let in
What part of a camera controls the amount of light that enters the camera?
The functional opening is the aperture, the opening that controls the amount of light that hits the photosensitive surface. You may have a camera with interchangeable lenses that screw into and out of the camera's body. The opening into which the lens is screwed is not the aperture.
What does the camera iris do?
The same as the irises of your eyes, it controls the amount of light that passes through the aperture.
What are 3 things that controls exposure?
Shutter speed, aperture, and ISO are the three main factors that control exposure in photography. Shutter speed determines how long the sensor is exposed to light, aperture controls the amount of light entering the camera, and ISO adjusts the camera's sensitivity to light.
Explain how the pilot controls the helicopter?
The pilot uses foot pedals and a hand manipulated stick.
How does f-stop or aperture affect a photo?
Aperture has two primary effects: first, it regulates how much light is admitted through the lens, so it controls exposure. Second, it regulates the angle of the cone of light rays that are being focused; a smaller aperture results in a sharper image and greater depth of field.
What variable systematically manipulated by the researcher?
The independent variable is the one which the researcher controls and manipulates. On a graph this is the 'x' axis.
What was the god Artemis powers?
The Godess Artemis controls/manipulated animals ,and the moon. She became a huntress an aided birth of children
What does the aperture on a microscope do?
The aperture of a microscope refers to its light-gathering capability and ability to resolve fine detail. It is usually used in reference to photomicrography.
What does F5 camera setting mean?
the F numbers usually refer to the aperture of the lens which controls how much light can enter the camera. it also affects the depth of field.
