In Auto the camera set everything INCLUDING the ISO. Checking the EXIF data on each photo will probably show this to be the reason. Try setting the ISO on Auto. Set on ISO 100 and max at ISO 3200 for the D5100.  You can also set the minimum Shutter speed in the Auto ISO setting. Depending on the lens set it at the same at the maximum zoom (for example for the 18-55 set the minimum shutter speed at 1/60sec. That should give you good results most of the time.  Then do no ever go to full AUTO ever again. Instead us the Program mode.  A little more control over the final photo this way.</blockquote>
