ATM Best planetary image?



After seeing some of the best ground based amateur telescope ccd images
of the planets I am left wondering the following things (bearing in mind I have never looked
through a  dedicated planetary telescope).
Given the same scope, which will discern more detail:-
An expert trained human eye or the most expensive commercially available ccd?
Did Clyde Tombaugh see some of the best detail with his 16in F10 scope?
What scope would give the optimum performance?
