Depth of Field
F-Stop or aperture setting affects the amount of
light reaching the image chip and the depth of
field. A smaller number means the aperture is
larger allowing more light in and giving less
depth of field. Less light is needed or use a
shorter exposure time. A larger number means the
aperture is smaller allowing less light in and
giving greater depth of field. More light is
needed or use a longer exposure time.
