Exposure

Exposure is the act of exposing film to light. Taking a picture on a light sensitive paper.
Exposure is affected my camera shutter speed and aperture and more. Aperture is the eye of the camera. It controls how much light gets the the camera sensor. Aperture is messured by the F_number.
The F_number is how narrow and wide the aperture is. The F_number can go from alot to a little.
There is also the fact of shutter speed. Shutter speed can get up to 1/1000th of a second to many seconds at a time.

You talk about light sensitive paper. What are we exposing onto in the digital camera world?

Some ideas for further research.

What are sample shutter settings?

What are some sample Aperture sized?

How is an F-Stop calculated?

What is a "Stop" (for shutter and for aperture).

What is the relationship between Shutter and Aperture?

What camera settings allow you to set the aperture and shutter.
