Toucam mods: RAW vs OPTIMIZED COLOUR

Hello guys,
since I had no chance to do it myself yet, I tried to find somebody that compared the results that can be obtained with the OPTIMIZED COLOUR mod against those of the RAW COLOUR mod. Well I found it (a fellow Italian amateur told me where to find it, to be precise) and it is here for anyone who cares to see: http://astro.christone.net/jupiter/rawmode.htm
and here:

I believe the images are unprocessed, however, if you download them and apply a very light unsharp mask to the image obtained with the optimized colour settings, the "softness" leaves place to details that are just as crisp as the ones revealed by the standard settings image, but with considerably less noise.

Hope someone will find it interesting.

Ciao & CS to all.

Luca
