Wacom Bamboo
After writing about some photography tools yesterday, I decided to go out and buy a Wacom Bamboo tablet from my local camera store. While I have not used it extensively yet, I can already see that it is an amazing product. Currently, I am using it as a complete replacement for my mouse. My MX Revolution has been put aside for now, so I can test the Wacom Bamboo exclusively for a couple days. So far, I’m loving it
It is very easy to see the strengths of this over a mouse. Just opening Photoshop or ArtRage will allow you to select items and paint with such precision that would never have been possible with a mouse. At first I thought it would be difficult and clunky to navigate, however, I have found the opposite. For drawing, sketching, and handwriting this tablet shines. It has a small, portable form factor, and looks and feels great as well.
After I play around with it this week, I plan to write up a review on it’s strengths, it’s weaknesses, and what features I find myself using the most. For now, you can check out my Flickr set with some of the unboxing photos.
