Zplus said:I am also looking at a pen and tablet to do my DI and touchups... May I know where are the places you would recommand to get the above. The intuos 2 seems to be what I am looking for. Painting with a mouse is painful!
Another thing I need to know is will the pen conflict with my mouse.. I am using a Logitech 510 and a Razor Diamondback at the moment...
Thanks, so between a used Intuos 2 6x8 and new Graphire 3 6x8, which is a better choice assuming prices are similar?Amekaze said:Intuos 3 has double the resolution of the Intuos 2 (5080 lpi) and comes with 3 interchangable nibs - standard, stroke and felt. And then there's the ExpressKeys and Touch Strips at the side of the working area which is supposedly to increase productivity lah... Other than those, reporting rate, tilt sensitivity and pressure levels all the same from Intuos 2.
Specs aside, the Intuos 3 actually feels very smooth in use. Can feel the difference from Intuos 2.
Basically, know what you want and buy what you need. If you just doing some editing in photoshop... I believe Graphire 3 should suffice. Unless you're really into painting, illustration, then you need the really smooth gradations that Intuos 2, 3 can offer.

Wow wow... ArtzII is like so old. And by the way... i still see ArtzII selling at Sim Lim. :bigeyes: Intuos3 never produce the bigger sizes. You work at huge resolutions? Care to share what's the diff between the the small to big sizes? Would like to hear from a real user.MoriMori said:Tablet pen is fairly robust, my artzII pad lasting 8 years now. I'd rather get the Intuos2, course i'm eyeing the 12x18 one . Intuos3 seems a bit too small and i prefer the individual function mapping rather than having to chord buttons
yep that's right... only the bigger sizes come with the 4D mouse. 4x5" and 6x8" dont' have de. Board so small already put mouse lagi no space. :blah: Anyway what exactly is the mouse for huh?benny said:My Intuos2 comes with a 4D mouse too. It's the 9 X 12 one. Still available at most shops in Sim Lim and Funan.
