Graphics tablet

[Pooky]

Ok looking for one. Wacom is out of the question as I am working on a budget of around R350.

So..... what one in this price would be recommended?

Thanks

Genius I think.

Genius I think.

Ya but there's quite a few different genius ones for that price range.

 

[eitai2001]

These are the only 2 I see:
Genius Tablet - G-Pen 340 - 3x4" tablet, USB, ROHS, Mac - R339
Genius Tablet -G-PEN 450,TABLET - R330

I just need to confirm the pricelists, as this pricelist is nearly 2 weeks old.

I have a G-Pen 340. I don't use it very often, and the writing area is quite small. But it works fine.

Ok which one would be best out of these for like editing photo's:

I would definately say the G-Pen 450 or 560.

 

[eitai2001]

I don't have the 560 in my pricelist though.

 

[Pooky]

What about a Genius MousePen 8x6?

 

[eitai2001]

Also not in my pricelist ... maybe some other retailers have stock?

 

[Pooky]

Ya but I mean would you recommend it over the other ones?

 

[spiderz]

i'd go for the one with the biggest writing area

 

[eitai2001]

Agreed with Spiderz ... these mostly have the same resolution, so the bigger ones are nicer as they are less sensitive to tiny movements ... i.e. tiny movements are smaller on the screen compared to the smaller ones where tiny movements are larger movements on the screen and less precise.

Genius 450 is well worth it, my lady is an artist, and works on it almost every day.

Cool guys thanks, I decided to go with this: http://www.shopandship.co.za/shop/genius-tablets/genius-mousepen-8x6-tablet-4.html

I am getting it for much cheaper though.

I'm useless with my wacom - I suppose its because I'm so comfortable with the trackpad I never really gave it a chance.
