Why does a camera need a aperture to control the amount of light hitting the film?
The aperture setting refers to the iris of the camera lens. Like that of your eye, it opens and closes, regulating the amount of light entering the camera body and exposing the film. I always remembered it like this: "The smaller the number (aperture setting), the bigger the hole" and vice versa. If you are in a darker room you need to turn the aperture down to allow more light in so that your prints do not turn out under exposed. You can also adjust your speed setting in correlation with the aperture setting to create greater/less depth of field, meaning what is in or out of focus in front of or behind your subject.
