Generally yes but I assumed you where using a DSLR and hence where able to go higher. For your camera I think ISO 400 would be max although I don't have experience with this particular model, I have an old Sony DSC70 and it's similar in this respect.

With a DSLR, using a lower ISO with shorter exposures you run the risk of underexposure which can also give a noisy image.
