Nice video and introduction for new photographers. There is one aspect of aperture I missed in your explanation which was an eye opener for me when I started: lower apertures also mean a much smaller range of focus, in other words, the part of the image that is sharp decreases when you open up the aperture more. This is for me the most important reason not to shoot open wide on fast lenses, as it can start "blurring" parts of the face or body of the subject.

Hey thanks Jorge, yeah, ive tried to explain these things for my girlfriend a few times and though why not make this a little video series. Good to have a refresher as well. About what you missed, im sure I mention it as shallow depth of field? Maybe I didnt underline that enough though, and yep, a typical thing is to go too wild with blurringg out too much, as mentioned. Cheers for watching, really appreciate your feedback! Have a good one buddy
