[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 575874, member: 13090"] I've used a Wacom Intuos Pro (wireless) for some time. Tablets are great, for retouching in particular. The real strength of using a stylus, versus a mouse, is the huuuuuge degree of control and precision it gives you. So much so, in my opinion, if you DON'T do a lot of re-touching/detailed corrections, you may want to reconsider buying a tablet to begin with. Yes, there is a [I]definitely[/I] going to be an adjustment period as you learn to use a stylus instead of your mouse if this is new to you. I would suggest you put your mouse away and force yourself to use the stylus exclusively when editing photos so you can get used to it. That's just my suggestion but either way I'd give yourself a couple of weeks to get comfortable with using the stylus. My last suggestion is that if you decide to go this route, get a SMALL tablet, medium at the largest. The reason being is that a smaller tablet will be less work for you. This is hard thing to explain but to put it simply, the smaller the working surface of your tablet, the less motion required from your hands/wrists to get things done. I hope that makes sense... If not, just trust me on this. Smaller Tablet > Larger Tablet when it comes to photo editing. Lastly, if decide a tablet is the way to go do yourself a favor: Drop the extra dime for a legit Wacom. Seriously. [/QUOTE]
