Digital camera apertures are not the same as SLR cameras?
I have been looking to buy a new camera and having read into the subject is it true that at an aperture of say f/2.4 on a digital camera it would rate as around f/11 on an slr?
Would this be true on such “bridge” cameras as the Panasonic lumix FZ28?
regards
basically, aperture is aperture for the purpose of exposure, regardless of the camera body. That’s why it works.
f/stop is a ratio between focal length and lens opening. No matter what the actual numbers are that used to determine that ratio, the result means the same thing every time. So an f/4 lens on a pocket camera and an f/4 lens on a medium format body will give you the same exposure value. The pocket camera will give much more depth of field, but that isn’t a part of exposure value.
