[gdal-dev] get different result when use different parameters

[Chaitanya kumar CH]

weixj2003ld,

I couldn't open the link.
Try "gdalinfo -mm des.png" on both the output images. I think they will both
give the same output. UInt16 should give a dark image unless you perform
histogram equalization on it.
