In those lightsaber shots the upper shot leans more towards green, especially relative to the lower cap.
I'd wager that the correct color is in between those two. Something like this:
As I said before, I think we've been corrupted by Empire, where it was a more pure shade of blue. All signs point to there being a bit more cyan; not as greenish as the first pic, but not *as* blue as the second.
Probably, but even as cyan it was always more visibly slanted towards blue, never appearing to the naked eye as a gradation of green. The first cap looks to my eye looks more like a relative of green rather than blue, whereas the second portion falls firmly into the blue camp, so it creates an odd contrast between the two shades.
In that shot you posted while it might be technically cyan rather than pure blue or pure green it clearly appears more biased towards the blue part of the spectrum... so to the naked eye it appears as a nice light blue glow.
