You name it, causes lack of vitamin D, vitamin D deficiency causes cancer. But first you will get anxiety and depression.
Vitamin D deficiency; your bones may soften.
Milk contains this, so does fish, so if you eat these products you should be fine :)
Also believe that if you don't get enough sunlight ( natural ) your skin is prone to acne.
If you prefer not to get the natural sunlight that is needed for your body then you should at least be taking a multi vitamin for your age/ sex.
If you're not getting 15-20 minutes of sunlight daily, your body cannot produce the vitamin D you need to get the calcium you ingest to work properly. There is a symbiotic relationship between many elements. Without proper calcium absorption, your bones and teeth can weaken, etc. A good multi-vitamin should help for times you're not getting all of the nutrients your body needs.
