Lighting. My eyes can’t see details at low light and also when there’s too much light. I think if you have really good sunglasses that don’t overwhelm your eyes by filtering just enough light then you can see the shadows and highlights when the sun is out very strong. Also if you took the lenses of the 10k+ camera and used it has a viewing apparatus you’ll see the same details.

The camera is just recording what comes through that lens apparatus so you can see the details later instead of doing it live. It’s like the same way heat sensor cameras work. You can’t see heat and cold spots but a camera that converts it to visible light by using sensors and doing a color overlay, your perception of hot and cold spots is augmented into your limited sensory range
