this is related to aperature (how much your lens opens up to allow X amount of light in) as a big f-stop (ex. f/22) is a small aperature (small opening) and a small f-stop (ex. f/1.8) is a big aperature (big opening)

think of it as an inverse relationship b/w the two
yea okay, so the f-stop is just the measurement of the aperature right? At least that what I thought it was.
