However the main difference is that, when we are consciously looking directly at something, we can almost always tell with 100% certainty what we're looking at, up to a considerable distance. I can see a car pulled over to the side of the highway a solid half mile ahead sometimes, and have plenty of time to respond. Computer vision doesn't have this additional strength.
As always though, the strength that computer vision has over us is it never gets tired or distracted, and it never operates in "default mode" where sensory inputs don't get full (or even much at all) conscious attention.
Even when some new information forcefully comes into play, your brain is often able to adjust your memory so you believe you knew it along, so long as the initial percept is fresh enough and had enough uncertainty.
All of this feels to you like a perfect unbroken stream of direct seeing but it is an illusion. You don’t see anything directly, you get fuzzy spurts of probability and turn it into your world in your mind. A world that’s likely to be unrecognizable to the next person.
That's just your brain again. You might mistake a bike for a lamp post, and switch between beliefs several times, before you figure it out, then convince yourself you knew it the whole time.
