Best Wacom Bamboo for Editing Images
Wacom Bamboo Fun
If you want image editing and aren’t concerned with price, I recommend the Bamboo Fun. It provides a large space which is what I prefer.
- Touch – 7.5″ x 5.1″ (W x H)
- Pen – 8.5″ x 5.4″ (W x H)
The Bamboo Fun includes more software and extras than the other Bamboo models:
- Software DVD
- Adobe® Photoshop® Elements 8.0 Win/Mac
- Corel® Painter™ Essentials 4.0
- Nik® Color Efex Pro™ 3.0 WE3
- Offer for free photo album from Shutterfly
- Offer for free online store from Café Press
Wacom Bamboo Pen and Touch
If you are more concerned with price, then I suggest the Bamboo Pen and Touch. It has a smaller drawing (active) area, but that is not a problem for most people. It just depends on your personal preference.
- Touch – 4.9″ x 3.4″ (W x H)
- Pen – 5.8″ x 3.6″ (W x H)
It comes without the extras and less software, but the two included are enough for great photo editing.
Software DVD containing:
- Adobe® Photoshop® Elements 8.0
- Nik® Color Efex Pro™ 3.0 WE3
When choosing a Wacom Bamboo tablet it comes down to price and size. If you want a smaller tablet and to spend less then definitely buy the Wacom Bamboo Pen and Touch. If you don’t care about price and want a larger tablet then I recommend the Wacom Bamboo Fun. My personal preference is to buy the largest tablet you can afford, but that’s just me.
