ISO in basic terms is how quickly the sensor reacts to light
In low lights use a higher ISO
- 100 traditional studio setup very bright less grain/noise
- 200-400 daylight
- 800 twilight
- 1600 night ie full moon lots of grain/noise
If you have artificial light sources then reduce your ISO
The lower down the ISO scale you go then the less grain/noise there will be in your picture
To capture light trails use a low ISO and a tripod over a longer period of time than normal ie : 20 seconds

I have decided that I am going to print all of these out and make a book. I am going to keep it in my camera bag so I always have your tips with me. They are great. Now all I need to do is get my lens fixed
