Guys, sometimes my camera won't take photos in the dark because it can't auto focus.  Does that mean I'll have to focus it manually?  Thing is I can't focus manually either, because it's dark, and I can't see, but the exposure in the end will be enough for it to come out ok, if you get me?

It's like a catch 22 situation.

Probably because the lens is to slow for the shot you are trying to take. Try adjusting the f stop or aperture manually. Another trick is to shine a torch on the subject, focus, lock it off and take the snap
