The term aperture is used in reference to the definition given to it by photography.
Here is the two f stops: f/1.0, f/22.
These two f stops represent the absolute opening of the aperture and the absolute closing of the aperture.
I want to theoretically, put a box over a light source on all four sides of the light source, and on top of the box there is a aperture of f/11. I want to know if the light getting through the aperture will equal f/1.4?
Or another way of putting the question is: do I always get the equal amount of light through a aperture the amount a aperture is open; If the aperture is only open 20%, does only 20% of the light from the light source get through the aperture even if the aperture is on top of a box covering the light source?
I am asking because I'm going to draw this box in autocad and want to know how to measure the light getting through the aperture.
