Excellent value, great addition to digital photo work
By Alista
Making selections is as easy as pie with the Wacom pen tablet. Using the lasso tool in photoshop was painful with a mouse, but is much easier with the pen tablet. The pen is about the size of a normal pen and is quite comfortable to hold. There are two customizable buttons on the pen which you can set to keystroke modifiers like ALT and SHIFT, making switching between adding to a selection subtracting from a selection possible without having to use the keyboard.The low price of this table is worht every penny, but with the accompanying software (Photoshop Elements 3), this is a real bargain.

Wacom tablet first hand user
By Gregor Nussberger
Hello,I have used Wacom graphic tablets for the last 8 years. I've come to like the 4 x5 size the best over the 6 x8 or larger. Why? With the larger tablets you'll be moving your arm a lot more, which will be apparent at the end of a 10 hours day. Even though you can define the drawing area in larger tablets, I don't like the inconvenience of the big device. I've also tried different brands but the battery-less design is superior. There is one major drawback on these tablets. They ALL have a matt coating over the clear plastic drawing area. After about 2 years of use that coating starts to chip off, making it very annoying. At that time I usually replace the device with a newer model. Therefore, plan on replacing the tablet at about 2 years if you are a heavy user. Over time I also experienced two pens that suddenly stopped working. Wacom has bad customer support, so expect to shell out some money to buy a new pen. Overall I think there is not much competition so you'll have to live with the drawbacks. http://www.nussberger.com will feature some more of my work. Thanks and have a great day.

By J. Hill
I bought this mainly for doing drawing and animation in Flash and other programs. It works like a charm- the pressure sensitivity really helps you get a more traditional "hand-drawn" look on your computer. The size is good- I don't think I'd want a bigger one for what I'm doing. I haven't been able to replace the mouse for the pen fulltime though- surfing the web or working on word docs with the pen still feels "akward" and I still prefer using the mouse- but since the tablet comes with a mouse it's great since I don't have to move the tablet out of the way to switch between the two. There's a slight different feeling using the Wacom mouse though- since it's direction is based on where it is on the tablet, you can't hold the mouse at an angle, move it up/down (at an angle) and expect the cursor to go up/down on the screen- it will go diagonally. Just like if you were to turn the mouse upside down, it will still go up/down on the screen, whereas a regular mouse would do the opposite of it's movement on screen. Not really a problem unless you're used to being lazy with the mouse like I used to be- you get used to it after a short time though. I actually think I like it better now. But no one buys this for the mouse anyways- the pen is awesome!
