Inside Bangrak Market in Belltown- f-number (Wikipedia)
An f-number is a measure of the light-gathering ability of an optical system such as a camera lens. It is calculated by dividing the system’s focal length by the diameter of the entrance pupil (“clear aperture”). The f-number is also known as the focal ratio, f-ratio, or f-stop, and it is key in determining the depth of field, diffraction, and exposure of a photograph. The f-number is dimensionless and is usually expressed using a lower-case hooked f with the format f/N, where N is the f-number.
