    Wacom Bamboo Tablet

    Hey all-

    So my brother was mentioning that my sister-in-law (his wife) got a Bamboo Fun tablet to user with her photo editing. He insists she likes it a lot. I've been kind of thinking about getting one for a while, and my brother's comment kind of helped "seal the deal", but I want some other opinions before pulling the trigger. Anyone?

    I bought one, it was the cheapest at best buy for just under $100.
    I actually really like using it for painting on the layer mask (in photoshop elements) and for cloning. mine came with a mouse which is nice as I sometimes have my laptop on a small table in font of me when im on the sofa then the tablet and mouse on my lap.
    In April 2008 I bought my first DSLR - a Canon 30d with the canon 50mm F1.8 and the Sigma 70-300 F4-5.6 APO DG Macro, and 430ex II flash.

    To learn more about me visit my
    Blog I also have pictures on Flikr

    I will critique your photos, but remember I am new and still have alot to learn too, so repay the favor when you see me post

    Wacom Tablets are da bomb. I have one of the older ones and it's great for many of the things I do in photoshop. Get it, you won't regret it.

    Also, if you can swing the cash...get a bigger one. I cheaped out and got a small one (actually found it for 50% off)...but a bigger one would be that much better.
    There's no correlation between creativity and equipment ownership. None. Zilch. Nada. Actually, as the artist gets more into his thing, and as he gets more successful, his number of tools tends to go down. He knows what works for him. Expending mental energy on stuff wastes time.

    I just last week bought an Intuos3 and just loving it. Not sure what I did before I owned one, have the 6x8 but perfect for my needs. It picked up at Henry's Warehouse store and saved about 25% on an open box sale. I am finding editing much easier and just more enjoyable somehow. If this one had not been on sale would have grabbed a Bamboo which I also considered. If you can afford to get one I would grab one, well worth the cost.

    Ya I want to get one of those things too. Where can you get them? I'm pretty sure nowhere within a half hour of where I live.
