f2.8 will let in a lot of light but with shallow depth of field. Meaning less in focus.
f22 will let in Not a lot of light but depth of field is increased. More in focus.
All is a play on light, be it natural or flash....
Wow! You have explained "depth of field" in one sentence. This has plagued me in mystery for ages and now I understand. Thank you. Another mystery solved.
