Changing the aperture setting on a Sony A7iii camera to F16 involves adjusting the lens’s diaphragm to control the amount of light entering the camera. A lower F-number, such as F2.8 or F4, results in a wider aperture and shallower depth of field, while a higher F-number, such as F16, results in a narrower aperture and greater depth of field.
Using a higher F-number like F16 offers several advantages. It increases the depth of field, keeping more of the scene in focus, which is useful for landscape photography or group portraits. Additionally, a narrower aperture reduces the amount of light reaching the camera’s sensor, allowing for slower shutter speeds in bright conditions or when using a tripod.
