It depends on what your shooting, you can also use AUTO mode on your camera to have your camera choose what aperture it thinks its best. If you have a high shutter speed than you might want to choose a bigger aperture (f/2 around there). But if you want a larger depth of field you need to choose a lower aperture (around f/32) and a lower shutter speed.

What is the relation between coupling efficiency and numerical aperture of optical fiber?

Coupling efficiency in optical fibers is influenced by the numerical aperture, as a higher numerical aperture typically allows for more efficient coupling of light into the fiber core. A larger numerical aperture enables the fiber to capture more light, which helps to improve the efficiency of light transmission into the fiber. Thus, a higher numerical aperture can lead to better coupling efficiency in optical fibers.
