Wacom Bamboo Pen

I use this pad to draw fashion flats. It's really intuitive if you are used to sketching by hand. I already have Adobe programs so didn't need for the pad to come with all of the plug ins which adds to the cost.

LOW COST- GREAT ADDITION

Mostly used for photo retouching- but it is a fun easy way to make a desktop feel similar to my laptop with the option of using fingers on the pad, and not just the pen

About Wacom Bamboo Pen & Touch Digital Tablet - SKU#1518576

Bamboo Pen & Touch combines the benefits of Multi-Touch with the comfort and precision of Wacom's ergonomically-designed pen. The result: a powerful new way to work with your computer.

With Multi-Touch, you use simple hand gestures and finger taps on the tablet's surface. And because the active area is larger than traditional mobile devices and laptop trackpads, it's comfortable and natural to use. Easily move around your desktop, scroll through documents, navigate the web, zoom in and out of photos, and rotate images.

Need precision? Pick up the pressure-sensitive pen to edit photos, create personal greetings, make sketches, and mark up documents in your own handwriting.

Using Bamboo is easy even if you're new to the touch experience. The included tutorial will teach you how to use simple hand gestures to move around your desktop, make selections, and complete other tasks on your computer.

You can even customize your Bamboo experience by assigning your own shortcuts to the four ExpressKeys.

Bamboo works with your existing computer: desktop or laptop, PC or Mac. And it'san incredible value with the included software: Adobe® Photoshop® Elements and Nik® Color Efex Pro. Sleek and black, the tablet makes for a stylish addition to your workspace. Attach Bamboo to a standard USB port, set it comfortably by your keyboard, and let your intuition guide you.
