What would you like to know?

I found a lot of info on Wiki

My View is that:
ISO is mainly used for lighting conditions.

Lower the ISO the brighter the light you can work with to ensure sharp images

Higher the ISO, the shutter speed will increase to try and help you in low light. The only issue with this is that it will introduce noise.

ISO - makes the sensor more sensitive to light. Higher ISO makes it more sensitive but adds noise.

Shutter speed - how fast the shutter opens - faster shutter means less light but captures action

Aperture - the size of the whole the light comes through. Large aperture (small F-number) means lots of light but blurs out things further away. Narrow aperture (large F-number) lets in less light but sharpens everything.

Don't think it gets more simple than that tbh.

shutter speed = how long the light is allowed on the sensor.

aperture how much light actually passes through the lense

iso - is sometimes know as film speed, so it also affects how much light is allowed on the sensor.

in a way they all do the same thing
