Aperture

1. Understand aperture
The most fundamental element any photographer should understand is aperture. The aperture is the physical opening within your lens that allows light through to the sensor (or film in an older camera). The wider the aperture opening, the more light can pass through, and vice versa.

The size of the opening, which is regulated by a series of fins encroaching from the edge of the lens barrel, is measured in so-called f-stops, written f/2.8, f/5.9 and so on, with smaller numbers denoting wider apertures. If you find this inverse relationship tricky to remember, imagine instead that it relates not to the size of the hole but the amount of each fin encroaching into the opening.

A narrow opening is regulated by a large amount of each fin encroaching into the barrel, and so has a high f-stop number, such as f/16, f/18 and so on. A wide opening is characterised by a small number, such as f/3.2, with only a small amount of each fin obscuring the light.

Thanks for the likes so far people! We will be updating this page daily and will be launching our website soon which will have reviews of all the latest and greatest cameras, lenses and equipment!

In the meantime here is a sneak peak the soon to be confirmed Leica Mini M camera, due for launch 11 June.

The Mini M could be a micro four thirds offering from Leica, or even a more compact full-frame camera. Either way you can be sure of two things: it'll be expensive and it will be nice as anything to look at. Bring on a hopefully more affordable Leica, and its legendary glow!
