The video tutorial explains the basics of how cameras work with light to create images. It covers three main variables that affect exposure: aperture, shutter speed, and ISO sensitivity. Aperture controls the amount of light entering the camera and affects depth of field. Shutter speed determines how long the camera's sensor is exposed to light, influencing motion blur. ISO sensitivity adjusts the sensor's sensitivity to light, impacting image noise. The tutorial also introduces the light meter, a tool to measure the correct exposure. Viewers are encouraged to practice using these settings to improve their photography skills.
