Kim Fearn Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Hi, I saw Damien's wacom advice was last updated in 2015, can anyone tell me which is the best I should be looking at now it's 2017? I really want to buy the right one and can't afford to get it wrong (£££) following the thirds rule - my screen is an LG widescreen 29" (much wider than tall) do I need any accessories with it to get the most out of it? I'd really appreciate any advice from members so I don't make a mistake and regret it, I know Damien still uses his ancient one and probably doesn't have up to date advice, thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Ah yeah, I really must update that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kim Fearn Posted January 19, 2017 Author Share Posted January 19, 2017 I'd just really like to buy one before I run out of funds, I'm very excited! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Have you decided on a size? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kim Fearn Posted January 19, 2017 Author Share Posted January 19, 2017 I was thinking anything around 8" upwards unless they become unaffordable, I've never used one so I wil likely become accustomed quickly to whatever size I start with - I hope!

Damien Symonds Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 If you go for a "Pen and Touch" one like this or similar, you'll probably find you want to turn off the touch functionality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kim Fearn Posted January 20, 2017 Author Share Posted January 20, 2017 is that so only the pen can activate the tablet and I can't accidentally do things with my hand? That one is a lot cheaper than I was thinking I'd have to pay which is good new, some of the medium tablets are £400+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 All I can tell you is that I've always been very happy with my simple, cheap tablet. I don't have any fancy extra buttons or anything, just a tablet and a pen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kim Fearn Posted January 20, 2017 Author Share Posted January 20, 2017 thank you Damien, there's a new pro model just out and one with an additional paper model, I think I'll get the medium for £380 (AUS $625) I can't wait, thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
