It's also true that if we see in real time because the eyes are not a sense organ, a camera would work the same way.
Ermmm... no. Cameras do not have brains to "look out" of eyes. We have built them to work only with incoming light, and to interpret this light as an image.

Each receptor measures the amount and colour of light it receives, and sends a signal to a memory bank, which records a little dot of the appropriate colour in the place that corresponds with where the receptor is placed on the sensor. If you look at lots and lots of those little dots in the right places, you see an image!
