I bought an XP-Pen Artist 15.6 pro graphics tablet monitor in the Prime sale - it's a great looking bit of kit! I want to love it!
Only I am REALLY struggling to get into using it, and struggling to see the utility over a mouse - which arguably makes no sense, as surely the tablet would make any editing more accurate?
I always see graphics tablet photography users say that, once you get into using them they're revolutionary, and they couldn't do without. So how did you get past this alien feeling, and how do you use yours???
Ironically, I've got a 4 year old Surface Pro with a pen input, but always found the screen a bit too small, doesn't have enough system resources, and couldn't get into using that for photography either. Was hoping the bigger screen on this tablet, and ability to connect to my desktop, would help. It didn't. Though it does highlight the lack of touch input on the tablet.
(Don't get me wrong, I can see they'd be great for graphics artists! Though actually not convinced about this model either at the moment.... not hugely sensitive at low pressure)
