What is the difference between aperture and shutter speed?

What is the difference between aperture and shutter speed?

Aperture controls the amount of light entering the lens, while shutter speed determines how long the sensor is exposed to that light.

How do they affect exposure in a photo?

Both aperture and shutter speed work together to control exposure. A wider aperture lets in more light, while a slower shutter speed allows for longer exposure.

Can you give me an example of how to use them together?

Sure! If you're shooting in low light, you might use a wider aperture and a slower shutter speed to get a well-exposed image.

What happens if I use a fast shutter speed with a wide aperture?

Using a fast shutter speed with a wide aperture will result in a well-exposed image, but it may also create a shallow depth of field.
