Shutter Speed, Aperture, and ISO

Shutter speed: changing the shutter speed changes the amount of time the lens is open. A slower shutter speed would give a more blurry picture, and a faster shutter speed would give a sharper picture.

Aperture: the amount of light let into the photo; it controls the depth of field in the picture. A lower aperture number produces a blurry background, and a higher aperture number produces a deeper depth of field.

ISO: the level of sensitivity of a camera to available light. The lower the ISO number, the less sensitive the photo will be to the light; the higher the ISO number, the more sensitive the photo will be to the light.
