I have a question that might be for beginners. I have Googled but found no answers. The question is.. I assume that the image coming through the lens fills the size of the sensor. Under this assumption. How does the image coming through the lens fill the sensor's physical size if the aperture opening is smaller then the sensor? Is the image being magnified by optics once it passes the aperture opening? To simplify my question I'll ask this, If your f-stop is at f.22 for example, How is the processed image not a small dot or larger dot depending on the size of the opening on the lens? Thanks.
