You adjust it via a wheel on the camera body (the camera then communicates electronically with the lens). If you have the camera set to auto it is all done for you. Some cameras permit (or even only allow) adjustment to be made on the lens itself via the aperture control ring.

What else do aperture and shutter speed control?

Aperture and shutter speed control the amount of light that passes from the lens to the film or digital sensor of a camera. Aperture is the size of the opening within the lens. The lower the f-stop number (1.4 for example) the larger the opening and the more light is passed through. Shutter speed is closely related. It is the amount of time that the lens is open. The combination of the size of the opening in the lens and the amount of time that the lens is open determine the exposure.


What is the difference between aperture and iris in photography?

In photography, aperture refers to the opening in the lens that controls the amount of light entering the camera. The iris, on the other hand, is a part of the lens that adjusts the size of the aperture to regulate the exposure of the image. In simpler terms, aperture is the opening itself, while the iris is the mechanism that changes the size of that opening.

What is a stop on a camera?

The f-stop is a number used to describe the relative opening size of the lens diaphragm during the moment of exposure. It is "relative" because the physical size for a given number (e.g. F 5.6) depends on the focal length of the lens. F 5.6 is physically larger in a 200mm lens than it is in a 50mm lens.


What are the numbers on a diaphragm?

The numbers on a diaphragm represent the aperture or f-stop settings available on the lens. These numbers control the size of the lens opening, with lower numbers (e.g. f/2.8) indicating a larger opening for more light to enter, and higher numbers (e.g. f/16) indicating a smaller opening for less light.

When a movie projector is moved closer to the screen does the image get smaller or bigger?

Assuming that the lens is not adjusted, the picture will become smaller as the projector is moved towards the screen. The size of the picture is related quite precisely to the distance, so moving the projector to half the distance will result in an image half the width and half the height. This applies to projectors of all types, not just movie projectors. Most video and some movie projectors have zoom lenses so the image size can be adjusted without moving the projector. Alternatively, if the projector is moved, the lens can be adjusted to restore the original image size (within certain limits).


How to know what size filter to use for a camera lens?

To determine the correct filter size for a camera lens, look for the diameter measurement marked on the lens or check the lens specifications. This measurement indicates the size of filter that will fit the lens properly.
