What is an F-Stop?

An f-stop is a ratio of the focal length of a lens to its aperture area. F-stop, also commonly referred to as f-number, is usually displayed on a camera when you change the size of the lens. It is a crucial setting in photography as it affects the exposure and depth of field of the image.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula to calculate the F-Stop:

\[ F = \frac{50}{25} = 2 \]

The F-Stop is 2.
