New Wacom Intuos Pro

[pixelplucker]

I recently retired my old Graphire beause the drivers aren't Win10 compatible and gave me fits so I picked up the Wacom Intuos Pro medium.

So far I think it is a solid buy: and heres my thoughts for anyone considering one:

 

Medium size is perfect, not too large that you cant use it in your lap and not so small the workspace is useless

 

Wireless bluetooth is nice you get almost 2 days running on the batteries and no usb receiver needed so you can easily use it on any computer

 

The programmable buttons work really nice, I have programmed them for different programs such as views in FormZ same can be done in AM.

 

Touch Ring is really handy too and works with zooming or scrolling menus quickly but not precise enough for scrolling modifyers

 

Can be set for left or right hand use.

 

Pen sensitivity is double of my old Cintiq and responds really well.

 

It is super thin and light

 

Surface isn't super slick so pen control is easy

 

Nibs are small and tend to feel scratchy on the surface

 

Touch mode is annoying and hard to control so I keep that off

 

Lastly it has one annoying bug with the software where it may lose connect so either simply move your cursor with mouse or touch pad and if that doesn't work then load the settings backup from the preference utility. Some people go beyond and restart the computer, this isn't needed.

 

Bottom line it's money well spent and should last many years.

Sounds like you are a fan .

I have a Cintiq (small one which still works with w10) but I use it way too less... anyway it really is great and I like it very much .

Best regards

I needed something for my laptop and the active stylus are useless. This is just comfortable to use. Find myself stretched out on the couch working hehe.
