Curiosity question: what "category" would a camera like the RBT
X2/X3/X4 cameras fall into? They're like an SLR camera, except
of course, there are *two* lenses -- with everything else being
the same as in the description above. Can't call it TLR (Twin
Lens Reflex) because that means something else. DLR (Dual
Lens Reflex) maybe?
