Why doesn't auto focus always work/give you a clear picture when using a digital camera?
I took pictures inside the house for Easter, and even though I was close and used the natural light of the living room, my picture was dark!
Answers:
Check the exif info on your photo (you can use a free viewer like exif view from http://home.pacbell.net/michal_k/exif_v.html) and see what the shutter speed and focal length is. If shutter speed is slower then 1/focal lenght (or 1/30 as a rough gauge), then it's probably camera shake that makes the picture blurred.
If your picture is dark, there's probably not enough light for the camera to function. Try using flash or increasing the ISO. If your camera has different modes, check if the one you used is shutter priority. In low light situations the aperture might not be able to compensate for the given shutter speed. If possible, switch to aperture priority or program/auto mode instead.
Other answers:
A picture being dark has nothing to do with the autofocus. I'll answer both questions. Autofocus can be wrong if there is some stuff in the picture close up and other stuff far away. A picture is too dark if it didn't take the picture over enough time. Maybe you reached the limits of your camera. indoors always use a flash, even if there is light, and most cameras if you lightly touch the button it will focus the camera before you snap the picture
all cameras have settings that can be changed for better results, better quality cameras have better/more settings
