I nodded off in the middle of this. I had a flashback to algebra class in high school. I slept a lot through that too.

@cromwell @jreyna so think of opposites ...
small number = big hole = faster shutter speed* = blurred background
big number = small hole = slow shutter speed* = focused all the way through
*depending on the ISO sensor sensitivity.
