automatic mode

ISO 1600
0,4 seconds.
F/5

Note how automatic mode is useless in dim light with the 18-55 kit lens.
Instead of increasing ISO , cameras does decrease shutter speed. Result : Shots get blurred !!!!!!!
Picture does look to bright compared with the actual light.

f/5

In order to capture the dim conditions I had to set ISO and speed manually.

If I set ISO and let camera choose speed..,the picture looked more bright , with more light than it actually looked.
