If you compartmentalize then you're quite right. One
could also say "left-handed stereo cameras" in which case the
Realist will likely live forever.  But the RBT cameras are 35mm
stereo cameras that one can order and buy, just as the
Realist was.  They can even use compatible mounts for the 
resulting images.  Both can be used to produce the same
resulting image size/mount (although the RBT's can do
a super-set as well).

P.S. -  Talking apples and oranges is perfectly fine if
        the subject matter is "fruit".

P.P.S. - Yes, I did stretch George's agreement a "little". I
         was on a roll and got carried away.  :-)
