What is lIGHT/ISO?
The ISO stands for International Standards Organization, this has the job determining the sensitivity of the sensor in your camera which affects the exposure of your photos. The ISO scale typically starts at 100 and continues to double from this point to the boundary of your camera’s capabilities: 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600, 3200, 64,000, etc.
If the ISO was a low number the exposure would match it which can make your picture underexposed in some cases. This is also the same situation when the ISO is a high number then the exposure would be high meaning the photo could be over exposed in some cases.

The appropriate ISO varies as to where you are taking the picture:
ISO 100 - 200: Shooting in daylight
ISO 200 - 400: For slightly darker conditions (shade or indoors)
ISO 400 - 800: When using a flash indoors
ISO 800 - 1600 - 3200: Used at festivals when there is low light and flash is not allowed
ISO 3200+: In a low light condition and this gives it an artistic grainy effect
