  • Excellent Product -- Using for software sketching and diagraming
I got this product not really knowing for sure if it was going to work for me. I suspect most users use it in a paint style tool for illustration and art work. On the other hand, I was going through reams of 11X17 paper, creating freehand drawings and notes regarding designs for software I write. These drawings and notes on paper were a pain because I'd lose track of them, it was difficult to erase big sections and "move them around" so they made more sense on the page, and to easily delete partial content that was no longer accurate. So I fished around for some software that looked like it would do what I want. I found NotateIt software, which is a deluxe whiteboard solution.. and I bought the 9 X 12 Wacom board, hoping like heck it would be useful. Well it has been just marvelous. It is a wonderfully engineered product and has worked flawlessly. I'm no longer generating reams of 11 x 17 paper with things crossed out and arrows pointing around old stuff to new stuff. Instead, I use the Wacom to make notes on the fly, do sketches on the fly, move parts of sketches around, and delete inaccurate notes very quickly. The feel of the tablet is great, the pen glides easily across the surface, and the front edge of the tablet is curved downward meaning you can rest your wrist on it and not be on a sharp edge. There are only two areas I struggle a bit with (and that word is probably too strong) 1. Desk space - I use both the keyboard and the tablet, alternating between them, but on one surface there's not enough room for both without moving them back and forth or leaving one in front of the monitor and the other at a less than comfortable angle off to the side. I like the 9 X 12 size and don't think I would be happy with a smaller tablet, so that's not the solution. Perhaps a desk where I can put the tablet on the desk in front of me and have the keyboard in a drawer below? 2. Handwriting - the tablet is pretty high resolution and detects every tiny nuance and wiggle in your handwriting and makes your handwriting look like you were 120 years old and had serious problems with the shakes. I don't know if they could do something in software to programmatically "lessen" the resolution to make it less "sensitive" when using certain apps (in which you might be doing free style handwriting). It is possible that a different pen tip might help, but I tried the ones included and can't say they helped much with this particular issue. I'm now using the tablet almost exclusively and my mouse is hardly getting and use at all. Once I got used to moving my whole arm to move the cursor across the screen (which took probably a week) I really love the tablet over the mouse - it's actually more intuitive to move your hand from left to right when you want to move the cursor from left to right, instead of lifting up and moving the mouse several times to get the cursor over there. Highly rated! ... show more

  • Not compatible with Photoshop
I was enjoying working with the tablet until I moved to a laptop from a desktop machine. Photoshop refuses to work with both touchpad and Intuous, which is extremely frustrating. Initially I believed the problem was my OS/Installation, however there is a large volume of users experiencing this with all Wacom tablets and Photoshop. Wacom support is non-existent and as such results in one star review of this. Absolutely unacceptable that Wacom refuses to acknowledge the issue and continues sweeping problems under the carpet. Next tablet will not be a Wacom one! ... show more

  • This is a great tablet!
I'm not an artist by trade (I'm a jack of all trades) but I've wanted a Wacom tablet for the better part of 15 years. I recently set up a Mac workstation for film editing as well as other creatives (I've got Adobe CS3 installed there as well) and I was reminded and re-inspired to get one after watching Mike Krahulik of Penny Arcade fame (Penny Arcade Volume 5 (Penny Arcade)) drawing on UStream.TV (search for "Penny Arcade"). What can I say? It works beautifully. To me this is a pretty good size for most needs (drawing and most detail work). Including the border areas, it takes up a good deal of desk space (I've situated it between me and the keyboard--since I don't write much on the Mac--to keep things all compact). The pen feels great, like a real pen, so it feels much more natural than using the mouse when drawing, inking, etc. Erasing is so much easier with the eraser functionality (takes some getting used to since I rarely use pencils nowadays) though the two buttons on the pen often times get in the way if I'm not paying attention (switching around between eraser and tip or the mouse and the pen, for instance). The pressure sensitivity and pointer functionality (you hold the pen an inch or two off the surface of the tablet) work nicely as well. The only thing I'm not used to is the fact that the tablet represents a copy of the desktop/screen (as it should, no qualms about that). It's just not as intuitive as using a mouse so there's a lot to unlearn. Maybe if they finally incorporate a display into the tablet, everything will be perfect!! (C'mon Wacom...I know you can do it...) What more can I say? It's a great product, set up was easy. It works as advertised. The mouse works well. The customization control panel gives you every option you can think of to customize each button (the tablet itself has four buttons plus a slider control on each side for a total of eight buttons and two sliders) for all functionality and for specific apps. Out of the box, PhotoShop supports the pen and pressure sensitivity which is great (no rummaging through settings to get it turned on). If you're on a budget, you might consider a size down (6x9, I believe) to start with and then graduate to this one. I'd considered the larger 12x19 but I figured this was a better one to get since I could always upgrade to the larger one in the future if I get more serious about drawing/inking (and because I figured I wouldn't have enough desk space to fit it right now!). ... show more

  • Timeless Technology, Value and Quality
Since many other reviews go into great detail about the features and usefyulness of the tablet, I will make this short and sweet. I have owned an Intuos 3 tablet since 2005, and I've had Wacom tablets since they started making them. To pay homage to their quality and value, they are the exact same tablet I bought 4 years ago and they sell for the exact same price I paid. The only thing that's really changed is what they're bundled with and the drivers, which have improved significantly. I now have a Vista 64bit Computer and they integrate flawlessly (something that can't be said about many products). I hacve yet to learn all the features, and I just broke down and ordered a few books that go into great detail on using the tablet with Photoshop and Painter. When I first got Painter with an older tablet, it came in a gallon paint bucket (back when software came on diskettes. I still have the can it came in. But I digress... The reason I only give the Intuos 3 a four star rating is a minor one. My old tablet was a thinner more solid feeling one with perfectly curved edges. It was a piece of sculpture that was a joy to look at and to hold. The Intuos line is kind of wedgdge shaped with a smoked plastic covering thew top and a film sheet for a drawing surface. Although it works fine, it doesn't have the appeal of the original tablets. It also is wired to a USB port. One would think that by now these products would have graduated to Bluetooth connections. Other than that, if you are considering a tablet you can do better than Wacom's offerings. If I had iot to do over, I might consider a smaller one. They have all the same features with a little less real estate. I find that I am usually changing the preferences to only use a portion of the 9x12 surface. And the smaller models are considerably less money. With a current rebate and deals, a 6x8 tablet can be had for just over $200. That's not a lot to pay for an invaluable tool for digital photo or artwork. If you use Photoshop, your missing a world of possibilities if you don't have a Wacom tablet on your desktop. ... show more

  • One of the BEST tools you could ever have as an artist One of the BEST tools you could ever have as an artist
I've been using Photoshop/PS CS for several years and this was the first artist tablet I have used. It's bigger than I had imagined, so you need to dedicate a lot of room for it. It can feel extremely awkward using it initially, it feels too alien to naturally draw with; I think that's especially true for this one because of how large the tablet is. But once you play around with the wacom tablet preferences--and you will want to keep adjusting them as you go along--you will notice a huge difference and it does feel like second nature after a while. One of the things I first did to get used to the "feel" of it was to adjust the active screen area (so that the whole tablet is only working on one section of your screen), for some reason that helped speed along the level of comfort remote-drawing. This is also helpful for tracing or speed sketching when you dont want to worry about going off your photoshop canvas. Another thing that is very helpful is the customizable buttons. I have the right panel left to default settings and have customized the left panel with CTRL+ALT+Z, Copy & Paste, and CTRL+T functions. The sensitivity/pressure preferences need to be experimented with for quite a while until you can feel the difference with the slightest changes in setting combinations. But they are VERY powerful especially when you team them up with the detailed customizations you can do in photoshop's own pen pressure related brush settings. This may be a little too intimidating for beginner artists, but if you are already comfortable with your traditional mediums, and know your way around photoshop/paint/gimp etc, then this will allow you so much more creativity. It looks as professional as it works, and the pen feels and weighs like a real one. ... show more

  • A Big Part of the Answer for Computer Art
We have several talented artists in our family, at least two of which have seriously taken to computer art. One of the elements that has made this feasible and rewarding is the Wacom Graphic Pad. My wife has used one for several years, and each time the family comes over, there is a waiting line to use the pad to draw on the computer. My wife has used it to create many different kinds of art with great success. Another element with which the Wacom must work is the proper graphics software. We have effectively used Painter software with the Wacom Pad. We had been using Painter V for several years, but it would not install with Windows XP, so we upgraded to Painter IX.5 which has worked very well indeed. Our grandson is majoring in art at our local university. We gave him a Wacom pad, and Painter IX.5 for his birthday. He took to it like a duck takes to water. Within 24 hours he had produced some very proficient computer art, and was having the time of his life. Whereas we use Windows XP here, our grandson uses an Apple laptop. Both the Wacom pad and Painter will work effectively with either one. Wacom is very good about updating their drivers. When we transferred our Wacom pad to Windows XP, Wacom had an updated driver available for download. One thing we have observed, at least with Windows, is the Wacom driver occasionally needs to be re-installed. It seems as if there may be a conflict with another program as the Wacom driver tries to load, and we have to re-install it. What I've done is place a copy of the driver in a folder on the desktop, and can quickly access it and re-install it. It is necessary to restart Windows, but this has always fixed the problem with little time lost. In all fairness, this happens only rarely. This Wacom pad is eminently suitable for the professional or the amateur. This newer version comes with a special mouse which works with the pad. For laptop owners, this offers some additional options. ... show more
