Photography notes on shutter speed and aperture

I took some notes down today about the shutter speed and the aperture.
I found out that the slower the shutter speed then the more light gets let through into the image.
The faster the shutter speed then the less light that gets let through.
The slowest is 1 second to 5 seconds or more, the fastest is 1/1000 of a second.

The aperture is the opening on the lens it controls the amount of light that hits the film.
The aperture sizes range from 2.4 (lowest) to 22 (highest).
Single

F-stops.
The smaller the hole in the aperture the bigger the F stop
