That means your photos are underexposed. For the simple reason that they do not, I can conclude that no one knows exactly how to use a digital SLR camera correctly. Please read a good book on digital SLR photography. Many people recommend a book called "Understanding Exposure." It's cheap, short and easy to read. The book explains how to control the relationship between ISO, aperture and shutter speed. After you know how to effectively use your DSLR correctly, which means that your photos are well exposed.
