Hi guys,

I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to tablets as I've never owned or used one but I feel I've reached a point with my photo editing that I need greater control than what a standard mouse can deliver.

To this extent I've started looking around for a Wacom tablet and have stumbled upon this one:

Wacom Intuos3® A5

Has anyone had any experience with this product or could they recommended an alternative?

Many thanks for the help!

this has been discussed before, see if the previous posts answer your question...

For sure, get a wacom. Any style you want but Wacom as It have pressure sensitive and it give you full control on you work.
I started with the Bamboo as my first try, and right now I'll move to the Intuos.
100% recommended.

I have Wacom Intuos3 6x8 and very happy with it, except the mouse i'm using defferent one...
