Graphics Pen Tablet . . . Great Fun

A graphics pen tablet is a terrific device to use with your computer. This flat pad lets you use a special pen to draw anything you want and then have your drawing displayed on the screen. Graphic tablets usually have drawing tools such as color brush, felt tip marker, chisel point marker, pencil for drawing (and an eraser for mistakes or changes) and much more.

 

We especially liked the intuos 5 touch (www.wacom.com), a professional grade pen tablet that has the common capabilities for graphics pen drawing and lots of other features too, such as:

* 2048 levels of pen pressure sensitivity for easily drawing a line or stroke of any width or make the line darker or lighter just by pressure on the pen.

* Full touch screen so you can enlarge, pan, rotate, and navigate your artwork using your finger(s).

* Eight ExpressKeys to program commonly-used functions, a touch scroll wheel, and reversible ergonomic design for left- or right-handed use.

 

Bundled with the intuos 5 touch tablet are several programs that allow you to start using the pen tablet right away:

Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 for PC and Mac, a photo editor.

Nik Color Efex Pro 4 Select Edition, a collection of photographic filters.

Autodesk SketchBook Express, a drawing program. 

Corel Painter™ 12 (free 90-day trial), the world’s leading digital art software.

Using the intuos 5 touch Pen Tablet and the included bundled software is great fun for lots of your photographic and artistic computer projects--an experience not to miss.
