Learn how to use the aperture of your lens for creative control of the depth of focus in your photographs. We'll explore how to adjust the aperture for various effects, and how and why you'd choose to work in aperture priority mode on your camera. We'll take a deep dive into "depth of field" and the three different factors that determine focus in your pictures. And you'll learn about lens choice, how to pick the right lens for the kind of picture you want to make, and how different focal length lenses affect perspective and depth of field.
