Here is a good basic def. of ISO on digicam.
ISO is the number indicating a digital camera sensors sensitivity to light. The higher the sensitivity, the less light is needed to make an exposure.
Digital cameras automatically select the ISO but most have a setting to change it manually. Auto ISO generally works best for bright scenes.
Shooting at a lower ISO number requires more light than shooting at a higher number. Lower numbers result in images with the least visible noise, which is desirable. The higher the number, the more noise.
The amount and degree of noise varies from camera to camera. Noise, when present, can be seen throughout a photo but usually appears most in dark areas.
Basically, it is a tradeoff. However, if you get a better camera or use a tripod (if your camera can use one), you can set the ISO lower so you'll get better pics at night since you won't have to use a high ISO and not handholding.
