Review: Wacom Bamboo Pen and Touch

As I hope that you should know already, Wacom has presented a new scale of tablets digitalizadoras. The Bamboo is the lucky ones of this one presentation and I prepare to show you what this one tablet can go so far as to help us.

They are completely revolutionary, since in addition to as it has being habitual to use this one type of tablets, with a special pencil, now also we can use our fingers. Although that we have a crystal trackpad (of the last ones that Apple has extracted) we are used to using 3 and 4 fingers in gestures, the Wacom tablet is capable of recognizing for the time being tansolo 2 fingers.

Design

Bamboo Pen and Touch is exquisite. Finished in hard plastic it gives him a sensation of hardiness and of hardness to the tablet. This one shaped, finished in black, it gives him a very outstanding elegance on the table.

For that we have one of the new portable unibody, it brings together perfectly with the silver and black color of the computer, reason for which Apple placed the keyboard in black color. Elegant and distinguished.

Pencil

Since it is habitual in the tablets Wacom, the pencil is an element that works without any type of battery, therefore we will not have to worry about the state of the batteries of the same one. Thanks to this, we have in the hand a very light pencil and that in weight, he resembles very much a normal pencil.

Tactile function

The tactile functions of the tablet, do that we could use a trackpad in any computer, be already portable or a dessert. In my case, a portable one with the lid closed and connected to an external screen. To realize a scroll of a page, tansolo it is necessary to use the habitual gesture of two fingers on the tablet.

The tactile functions are configurables to a certain extent, we have the limit in the software given by the mark, which for me is perfect

Conclusions

Although to be able to use a tablet of these, we have to happen for an adaptation period, his use every day does that you finish yourself being accustomed to all his virtues.

Also I have to say, that it does not look like to me a stand-in of the mouse, to use it so that olvidemo the mouse, since for me, it is quite tired to move the hand above and below non-stop. Much better a mouse.

It is clear, that for all kinds of photographic finishing touches, a tablet is the ideal thing. It gives the precision that a mouse does not give you and also you win in productivity.

Without hard, Wacom has very been right in his work with this one new scale of tablets digitalizadoras

I leave many things to myself in the inkwell, but I hope to be able to go outlining them little by little, in next posts and also in Geeksfera, where I will give him a completely photographic approach.
