What graphic tablet should I use? ( ・◇・)？
0
Hi there, I really like art, and for long I have been thinking of buying a graphic tablet to start practicing and draw my own art.
But what graphic tablet should I get? Im no pro and don't think i'll use the full pontential of a very expensive one, which one should I get?
Im looking for one that does the job but isn't expensive as I don't have a lot of money right now.
Thanks in advance (｡†¢Ì€á´—-)✧

I use Bamboo too and it works well. It might take a while to get used to draw on a tablet, but you'll do fine in no time :D

I think you can choose whichever that suits your need.

I use a Wacom Intuos Pen Small and works fine. I recommend it if this is the first time you use a graphic tablet.

We use mostly the Wacom Intuos here in the office, but the Bamboo is a great affordable tablet.

I own a Cintiq 13HD and an Intuos 4. I used the Wacom Bamboo when i first started digital art and it is very reliable. I will say that the size of your monitor will directly correlate to the speed of your pen cursor. Because the workable surface of the Bamboo is pretty small pairing a large monitor with it means the pen cursor will move faster on your monitor. I mainly use the Intuos 4 when i'm on my laptop trying to be mobile. so the screen ratio between the Intuos and my Laptop are pretty close so i get a very accurate movement in relation to my Pen strokes. Generally speaking most people will adapt to the movement speed overtime though regardless of ratio, it's no different from using a high sensitivity gaming mouse in that regard.
Anyhow, i wouldn't worry about the monitor to tablet size ratio if this is your first tablet. I haven't used the other tablet you listed but i have used the Wacom Bamboo and it is quite reliable, I actually sold my old Wacom Bamboo to another Fakku member =) and he got good use out of it too.

A Bamboo's alright to start out with, although if you're seriously looking to get into digital art (I started out with a model of Bamboo that doesn't even exist anymore, lol), then anything from the Intuos line of Wacom tablets would probably suit you better, as they have better pressure sensitivity, and are typically designed to cater towards the technical side of digital artwork, allowing for a smoother work flow. I personally use an Intuos Pro Pen & Touch, and am currently saving towards a Cintiq 13HD. The Intuos small would be a good start, especially if you're looking to start cheap, although it might lead to some issues with larger images, as making larger strokes gets troublesome with such a small drawing area.
Anyway, just go with the option that best suits your current situation and what you want from a tablet, as you can always save up and upgrade at a later date. Hope this helps ^ w ^

currently I'm using the wacom cintiq 22HD, it actually works really well! I'm able to get into deeper detail within my drawings. My only downside would be the space needed to install.
Program I'm using is "Auto Desk Sketchbook express" and "Manga Studio 5"
I would also recommend practicing on sketchbook and looking at tutorials.....
I spent so much without practicing...

The one you use is really expensive for me, I decided to get the Wacom Intuos Pen and Touch Comic CTH490CK, It fits what I can buy and seems really good. I was also thinking of using Clip Studio Paint.
Anyone can recommend a program?
Thanks for all the answers so far! Ù©(｡†¢ω†¢ï½¡)Ùˆ

For my drawings, I use a free legal software called FireAlpaca.
I used to have SAI on my old PC and that's great too. Besides Photoshop, I don't know the rest but hope this helps.
