Aperture, Shutter Speed, ISO

Aperture- determines the size of the hole that allows the amount of light to get through. The larger the hole, the more the light. Measured in f-stops. If the aperture is small, the Depth Of Field is large.

Shutter Speed- this is the length of time that the camera allows light to go through. Slow speeds allow more light and are used for low-light/ night photography to let more light in. Faster speeds help freeze motion 

ISO- level of sensitivity of the camera to the light. Measured in numbers, the lower the number represents lower sensitivity to available light, higher numbers mean its more sensitive
