Hi, I got a Rebel T6s and have serious issues with flash photos in low light conditions. I use two differents lenses (kit lens 18-135STM and prime lens 50mm 1.8 STM). EXIF data shows me that flash has been fired, but the picture is completely dark. I have no idea what to do. I shoot the same image with the same adjustments several times and sometimes the flash fires correctly but most of the time does not. Anybody any idea? I was using a Lumix 4/3rd with Olympus lenses before and never had a any problem with that.
Every help is greatly appreciated. I uploaded an example image.

Autofocus uses light and contrast to function. The less you have of each, the worse it works. You could try a flashlight to temporarily illuminate a target to focus on first. Or use a flash unit with autofocus assist. Or try manually focusing with enlarged Live View.
