Tablet suggestions?

Rayek · 03-30-2010 21:47

I'm looking for anyone with experience with Tablets, and if they have a suggestion on a brand they would recommend.

Thanks!! smile

I myself use a digi pro.. t-6000u It was very cheap maybe cost me 30-35 dollars and it is a great beginners tablet.. im looking into getting me a newer one, since i know how to use it now

What is your price range and what do you plan on using it for?

Shebaz · 03-31-2010 16:35

for photoshop's works i use mouse and tablet both cause sometimes we don't need to use tablet, but sometime we have to use it absolutely, for example for editing works and for very precision works.
I'm italian so i think it's not important what kind of tablet i use...

I have Wacom Bamboo Pen & Touch, but its £85, so I wouldn't reccomend it as cheapest hmm

Mine is similar to yours...Wacom Bamboo, but without the thouch function tongue
I paid it 80 euros (I don't know how much it is in dollars tongue ), but I guess now you can find it at lower prices smile

I have a wacom bamboo as well, without the touch function (it's an older model, so) and I'm pretty happy with it. I can't remember how much I paid for it, though.

I have a Wacom tablet also. Well, you must all agree they are expensive but they are the best. ^_^

I have Intuos 4, but it was not cheap and I would not recommend you to buy it if you don't plan to professionally work on graphic design or digital painting...

I got one from Argos (UK retailer) and it was about £40. It's made by Trust. I love it, as my edits really transformed - as soon as I got the hang of it!!

I don't have tablet but I wish I had.

Booo-yahhhhh · 04-01-2010 19:45

I'm getting a tablet, it's my belated birthday present from my dad. :]
We're getting one off eBay... Lol

I have a Wacom Intuos 3 a5 wide it was about £200 I think. Not really something I would recommend to a hobbyist, a Bamboo or a similar tablet will also work. Just be sure not to get a tablet that require the pen to have batteries as they are rubbish.

Wow, lots of responses! I just wanted to throw out that I use a Wacom, too. I highly recommend them. I currently use a Wacom Cintiq 21UX. I don't think Wacom manufactures its Graphire series anymore, but I used to use one and I really liked it, and you can probably find it pretty cheap on Ebay. smile

Now, i don't know a lot about tablets, and was wondering if anyone would recommend it by the description. €60 is a lot to me, but i'd like to know if i should purchase this one, or look on ebay

Help is super super appreciated! smile

I've never seen tablets at Lidl. I buy there only walnut ice-creams and cherry cakes.

60€ is a steal, the technical information seems to be awesome too!
26 programmable keys and 4:3 /16:9 switchable - Wacom doesn't have it! yikes

Have you read any reviews on that product?

Oh, and I guess these vids won't help you. tongue

Go and get it big_smile

I have Genius tablet for more then a year now and I'm satisfied. Pen cracked a little bit, which makes it harder but I do not tend to complain too much. And it's pretty cheap.

However, I'm drooling over Wacom tablets. They are like sex.
