As a beginner, could someone help me with grading the following three ideal scope images
and why one is better then the other? Im lost. From what I can find from searching the
posts, some black is good - but should be dispersed, not too much light loss is obviously good
but if there is loss, good pink/white contrast is good.

Thanks,
Tas.

2 is best, 1 is next best and 3 is worst.

ASET scope is better for proincess and other fancy shaped stones.
And you should also rock the stone and make sure there are no big triangular leakage - dead - spots.
