Hi all,
The Bscope report shows the following areas:
White Light, Color Light and Scintillation. I have read that you have to take from one area to get more in another. Which of these areas is the most important to have a very dazzling, sparkling diamond?
Thanks,
Daniel

This is a good question. I have also asked the question about the pictures that come along with a typical Bscope. Sometimes, I see a bscope with readings in the VH+ range for all 3 values, yet the pictures that are bundled with the report are horrible. Then, I see a bscope with not nearly as high a rating on the 3 bars at the top, but the pictures that are bundled absolutely sparkle. This makes for a VERY confusing, VERY conflicting data set, and I am still trying to figure out what to do.

The bscope moves a light source over the diamond to let light shine in from every possible angle. The 5 or 6 snapshots, however, only capture 5 or 6 particular frames. So even a sparkly diamond might have been caught at a frame where it was not at its best.
It would be nice if the bscope report would include a greater number of frames, say 20 instead of just 5. Or better yet, it could provide a small video file showing the full continuum of light return, similar to these videos on the gemex site.

So, it is better to look at the bar results than the pictures?
