[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 613881, member: 13090"] I wouldn't suggest a tablet and pen for everyone but I would strongly suggest a tablet if you do a lot of fine, detailed retouching or editing; this is where using using a pen really shines: in the degree of control it gives over using a mouse. Pressure sensitivity is a wonderful thing and unique to using a tablet and pen I believe. The tablet and pen I have, and recommend, is either the small, or medium-sized [url=https://www.amazon.com/Wacom-Intuos-Touch-Tablet-PTH451/dp/B00EN27ULS/ref=sr_1_4?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1490705329&sr=1-4]Wacom Intuos Pro[/url] tablet. Do NOT get a "big" tablet, smaller is actually better. Reason being is the tablet surface will correspond to your monitor, edge to edge, regardless of size. What that means is a larger tablet will simply use more space to do the same thing but will require more motion of your hand and arm to accomplish. A smaller surface area means less effort to accomplish the same thing. This may not sound like a big deal but in practice, with an actual tablet, it's HUGE. Smaller. Is. Better. Be aware there will be a learning curve when it comes to getting comfortable with using a tablet and pen.
