Who is DrT?

No, he is not a professor... He is not a medical doctor either. He is a stereo photographer!!!

I specialize in stereo education through books, CDs and videos. My web site has a large section with free stereo photography information, from buying a stereo camera to mounting and projecting stereo slides. Check it out!

I try to ship quickly, I combine shipping and always try to get you the lowest shipping rates. I accept paypal, personal checks (I rarely wait for checks to clear) and other forms of payment. In addition to the items in my ebay store, I also repair Stereo Realists and all types of stereo viewers.

If you like the presentation in my ebay auctions, consider having me sell your stereo items here in ebay for a very reasonable commission.  

As you can see, I research the items for sale, photograph them and describe them in the most accurate way.  I take care of everything.  This includes: 1) Cleaning items (including minor repairs if needed), 2) Photography, 3) Advertisement, 4) Ebay descriptions, 5) Collecting payment, 6) Shipping goods to buyers.  Your only job is to get the items to me.  After the payment is cleared, I keep my commission and transfer the funds to you.  Please contact me if you are interested in commissioning the sale of your stereo items to DrT.

In my ebay feedback you will also see a few neutral/negative feedbacks.  These are all retaliations from sellers who overcharged grossly in the shipping charges.  (I really do not like the practice of charging excessive shipping charges to pay for the ebay commission costs). I never had a non-positive feedback from a buyer/customer.  If you are not happy with any of my products or services, let me know and I will do my best to resolve any problem)

The comments below have been collected from personal correspondence and public postings in the photo-3d email list.  "My heart-felt thanks for resurrecting my favorite viewer... It is much better than it was when it was new" - Paul Milligan "You are doing the cause a real service. Just getting the viewer filed out to 7 sprocket makes it worth while!" - Paul Wing "The amount of detail and clarity of illustration... will impress even those who are not already familiar with the viewer." - John Dennis [from a review in Stereo World, March/April 1994, p. 49] "You've authored the definite work on the Realist viewer" - Steve Pettit "George's aperture widening is so slick and perfect, it is almost impossible to tell that the viewers were not designed with their apertures widened." - Franklin Flocks "Today my ancient & decrepit Red Button came back a week to the day after I sent it, looking and acting (literally) better than new..." - Russell Young "I too must publicly commend Dr. George Themelis for the fine work he has performed on my Star-D viewer... A fine job of craftsmanship and attention to detail. Thanks George, excellent work." - John Vala "I'm another very satisfied customer of Dr. Themelis'... Outstanding job." - Ron Doerfler "Dr. Themelis' book... very interesting and a must for Realist people" - Shilo Teshima "Regarding George Themelis' Viewer workmanship - It is GRRRREAT!" - Dalia Miller "The Kodaslide viewer book took all the fear out of fixing a Kodaslide II" - Elliott Swanson "My Realist viewer, and now my View Master model D, look like new and function better than new... Many thanks DrT" - Bob Mannle "The viewers look beautiful! Thank you so much for the fine attention you paid them." Cynthia Morton "I received my modified KII viewer this weekend..., Boy what a difference it makes! I spent a lot of time looking at my old 7p slides. The power supply works well and the VM model D plug fits fine in my viewer." - J. Bert Noel "You've done a superb job and every stereo nut must have it (Kodaslide book)" - Gil Van Horn "I was amazed at the improvements made to the viewer quality by upgrading to halogen bulb and the variable power supply" - David Motz "The (Realist) viewer, modified by George, is wonderful. It looks like new and performs better than new thanks to the halogen bulb." - Greg Erker "DrT resurrected my wretched model D focusing VM viewer with wonderful results... I also got one of his transformers... The workmanship alone is worth more than the cost of the whole thing." - Lattie Smart "To say I was impressed with the job you did on my red button Realist viewer would be an understatement. It is like a completely new viewer." - Pauline Sweezey "Instead of fixing my old Realist 3.5, you have apparently given me a new camera and have kept the old one!" - Chris Helms "It's a beautiful job! Besides looking nearly new, the improvements to the light intensity and uniformity is amazing! Thanks again for your excellent work." - Greg Wageman "Oooohhh! Aaaaahhh! Wow! (Insert 7p slide) Oooohhh! Aaaaahhh! Wow!" - Bruce Rosenmberger "My gorgeous clean bright beautiful Realist red dot viewer is home where it belongs. Thank you, thank you, for the fine job you did cleaning it and enhancing it!" - Erlys Jedlicka "My advice is to listen to DrT. I just purchased a Realist 3.5 from George and I am VERY pleased with what he sent me. George not only knows what he is talking about, he is also fair in his prices." - Mike Providence "Just this morning I received the Kodaslide viewer that I ordered from DrT. All I can say is WOW! Thank you DrT! It is absolutely beautiful and makes my slides look wonderful" - Tom White "I wanted to tell you how pleased I am with the repair you made in my 3D viewer. Everything is working well and it is a delight to once again see my old slides." - Barbara Allen "I wanted to add my comments to your collection about the tutorial ... I have *a lot* of stereo photography instruction books and assorted bookmarks in my web browsers. After spending the last few days reading your tutorial I must say that there are concepts I never understood that are now perfectly clear. Thank you for putting a lot of theory into plain English." - Mike Bittner "I found your introduction to basic photography a very worthwhile and illuminating reading material. It clarified a number of subjects which were not adequately sorted out in my mind.... The concepts of 'window' and hyper-focal distance were particularly enlightening." - Yair Sachs "As the recent recipient of some cameras which have gotten Dr. T's tender ministrations, I want to give his service an unqualified highest recommendation! The service itself is excellent, and it is very reasonably priced. In addition, Dr. T has been very helpful in communicating via e-mail about the state of the cameras, and other related topics. Thanks, George!" - Peter Davis "I'd just like to add my recommendation as well. I've had a Realist camera and a viewer reconditioned by Dr. T, and in both cases the work was stellar and well worth the money. It was like getting back brand-new goods." - Don Munsil "It is your Stereo Realist book that got this workshop going. After buying a copy a couple of years ago, I applied the techniques and got pretty good results. The descriptions and detailed photos made it easy, even for the mechanically challenged, like me." - Ted Walker "Wanted to let you know that the book arrived and it is incredible. For the obvious novice like me, it's has terrific info on photography basics (in clear, concise language) and a wealth of info on the Realist (fascinating details which I really like). Just tremendous!" - Bill Auld "Anyone who has a Realist, should get Dr.T's book. I have just received my copy and it is the best Realist book I have. NO, I am not on commission, I just think it is a really worthwhile purchase for anyone owning, or thinking about buying a Stereo Realist." - Tony Russell, UK "Your book is a great asset. I wish I'd had one years ago. I was able to get both of my Realists working with flash (and gave them a good cleaning as well). Thank you very much." - Dwight Harvey "I'm very much enjoying your Stereo Realist Book - The amount of detail is amazing and I have already learned a lot. I had no idea that is was possible to focus a Realist closer than 2.5 feet. I'm sure the book will be very useful in keeping my Realists working." - Franklin Flocks "I have been reading your excellent book on the Stereo Realist. It is very informative and the style is understandable and makes reading it a pleasure. The history and repair section are great. You have re-kindled my interest in the stereo realist camera especially the 7p Realist modification." - Harry Esp "George Themelis has written the manual in an easy reader-friendly style, and throughout he manages to convey his own enthusiasm for the systemIt is difficult to visualize a more comprehensive and relevant treatise, yet everything in it is easy to access and clearly presented with copious diagrams, drawings, tables and photographs Colin Clay, himself an enthusiastic and knowledgeable Stereo Realist user, says: 'I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and many of the tips and recommendations confirm my own experiences, particularly those relating to the maintenance and repair of this well-designed camera. I consider that virtually all Realist camera owners would benefit from studying the book, and I strongly recommend it.'" Donald Wratten (review published in The Stereoscopic Society Journal of 3-D Imaging, October 1999) "For a present-day slant on a 50-year old camera, this book is more comprehensive than anything else out there. I recommend it." Mark Wilke (review published in Stereo World, Vol. 26, no. 2 & 3) The repaired viewer has just arrived and I am in awe at the job you did. I made the mistake of showing it to my wife and she immediately grabbed it and started looking at our 1953 wedding slides. It is amazing how young and thin the new bulb makes us look. Many thanks for converting a corroded box of plastic into a virtually "new" viewer. I'm sure we'll have many happy hours with it. Shel Jacobs I was very impressed by the condition of the (Realist) camera I received, how well it worked, and the usefulness of your book. Even though I paid about $50 more than I may have found one on eBay, I still feel like I got a bargain. Robert Swirsky, 1/03 I just received the Realist book, and it is more than I hoped for. I doubt anyone could have a question about the Realist that's not answered in your book!  Now, with the help of your book, I will not be afraid to disassemble my Realist and fix a few nagging problems. Thanks for a great product.  Jim McManus, 2/03 The viewer is 3D-lightful!  I looked at the Beta-10 folio with it last night and this improvement is astounding. I especially enjoyed seeing the entire 7p images instead of the cropped view I used to see.  My other (ST-61) viewer, which is armed with a frosted halogen bulb you sent me, just does not compare to the supercharged unit. Ted Welker, 2/03
