Aperture
Aperture – a) An adjustable opening in a lens which, like the iris in the human eye, controls the amount of light entering a camera. The size of the aperture is controlled by the iris adjustment and is measured in F-stops. A smaller F-stop number corresponds to a larger opening that passes more light. b) As applied to ATV, the finite size and shape of the point of the electron beam in a camera or picture tube. As the beam does not come to an infinitesimal point, it affects the area around it, reducing resolution. c) The opening of a lens that controls the amount of light reaching the surface of the pickup device. The size of the aperture is controlled by the iris adjustment. By increasing the F-stop number (F/1.4, F/1.8, F/2.8, etc.) less light is permitted to pass to the pickup device.
