Aperture value

The aperture value of a lens can be adjusted to control
the amount of light reaching the image sensor. When
opening the aperture (reduce the aperture value),
objects closer and further away than the focused
subject will be out of focus. When closing the aperture
(increase the aperture value), the range in focus
expands forward and backward.
