I've been using Photoshop and Wacom tablets for over 25 years and this is the first I've heard that there is a replaceable sheet on top of the tablet! Thanks Unmesh.

[@PiXimperfect]

Even I learned that very recently when browsing through their website and trying to fix my old tablet. Not a lot of people know this, and they end up buying new ones. Surprisingly, it is often out of stock, but I hope more people get to know about it and Wacom doesn't discontinue that.

[@georgekontos1839]

I've bought new tablets several times over the years because the surface got too messed up.

[@CrookDanny]

Mind absolutely blown, I’m a weirdo though and still have my retired tablets so I’m going to see about updating the covers!

[@jeffreypostma6832]

You can also consider tweaking the pressure curve, so that you don't have to press very hard: it saves the nibs and the surface of the tablet.

[@flytetime7637]

I was going to buy a surface sheet on Amazon but someone in the reviews suggested taping a piece of A4 paper over the surface. It works for me and saved me money.

I never used to use a tablet, then I got given one by a friend and my eyes were opened. It takes everything on to the next level and you can achieve things you couldn't before, but didn't realise the difference it makes.

This is maybe the most perfect video explaining if i need a graphics tablet or not. Thanks man.

[@cerennuralp]

Thanks for the tips! Ive been using tablet for 3 years and i bougth it when i was a beginner to photoshop. and it literally shifted my experience. My photo edits are more natural, more dinamic, more aestetic. All thanks to tablet.

[@braddahbill8131]

I have been using PS since 2013 and bought the Wacom Intuos Small Graphics Drawing Tablet in 2014. I can honestly say that I cannot go back to a mouse or track pad. There is a learning curve that will take 2 to 3 weeks of editing, after that it will start to feel natural and fluid sort of like holding a pencil over a piece of paper. The amount of accuracy and control with the tablet, and a strong knowledge of keyboard shortcuts makes editing so much more efficient.

[@pete292]

Thanks Unmesh. Definitely going to invest now. Appreciate you and your videos

[@jackprice7828]

I am really glad you talked about tablet use with Photoshop. Years ago I used a tablet but mainly for graphics detail. But now that I am doing a lot of photo restoration and often make detail changes with the brush, I think a tablet will really help my productivity.

[@BenSussmanpro]

I own a tablet so I really didn’t need to watch this, but I watch all your videos, lol! But regarding the mapping that you discussed at around 7:34 , if you slightly hover your pen above the tablet you can see, on your screen, where the pen is going (at least on a Wacom). This feature helped me a lot when I first got mine. Another superb video!

[@patd.3368]

I have the same tablet , while I do often end up switching back to mouse but I must admit having a tablet give you much better accuracy , especially if you need to do delicate works , finelines , drawing hairstrands . It just does not feel quite the same with mouse but then I am also an artist so I am used to painting / drawing with pens , so I might be biased .

you should definitely go for it, i was in the same dilemma but after using the tab now i cant imagine going back to the mouse for my daily Photoshop editing

[@nirmalyasengupta9013]

As usual another excellent video 👍 I think If you're a UI Designer only then u don't need Graphic Tablets apart from this whatever creative professional you're. Graphic Tablets is must needed creative tool now a days whether you're graphic designer, retoucher, digital artist, illustrator, 3D artist, motion graphic artist, editor etc. for professional if budget is not any issues then Wacom is thr best if budget plus performance both then Huion or XP-Pen is the nice choice.

[@canniballissimo]

I have an A5-tablet and i'm happy!

[@glennhanna244]

I've been using photoshop for 25 years and never have used a tablet for it. Don't get me wrong, I wished I had a tablet. It would have saved a lot of mental strain and patience needed for mouse work, plus I missed out on some great brush capabilities in Photoshop. I finally got a tablet for Illustrator (where I do 95% my professional work now) after watching one of your past videos. I only use it for sketching/drawing.... but oh is it so nice to have for that. I am happy with the purchase and likely will find new tasks to use it even more in the future.

[@johnharveypante1958]

do have a review for drawing tablet? and which would you recommend, like around midrange. i can stretch the budget a bit if its worth it. thanks keep creating videos, it helps :D

[@TobyAllan]

Next you should do a video, going from a tablet to a pen display, i went from a Wacom tablet to a 24" 4K drawing display, it made the biggest difference in the world, i work with Photoshop, Lightroom and other graphic programs, around 10-11 hours every day, when i got a tablet back in the days it made workflow a lot faster, but when taking the next step and upgrading to a drawing display, it is just crazy how much faster the workflow becomes compared to a tablet :) .

[@Jhesy]

I literally just hopped of google looking for budget drawing tablets, and not up to 3 minutes, I'm seeing this notification 💀

[@shiv_raj_911]

[@holdmacat9932]

XPen tablets are great! Highly recommend! I have a pink one with Bluetooth, and it works amazing, even got it on discount

[@makibo.mp4]

digital artist here, if you want to try a graphic tablet try buying the cheapest first so you dont regret it, I recommend the Huion H420 if you scroll enough online (not the 420 version, as that doesnt have the extra shortcut macro buttons and still at the same price as the H version) there are cheaper tablets than this, but this is commonly accepted as the best cheapest. Do not go for any WACOM yet, test the waters first to see if using a tablet is really for you

[@fotticelli]

Listen to the man. You do not a large tablet. Or even a medium one. I made that mistake and got the medium one. First I remapped the surface just to use a part of it and then stopped using it and went back to the 4x6 format I've always used. It may be not obvious but you get the same amount of precision on a smaller tablet. You just zoom in. Large tablets are for people who draw and need to see the whole graphic or image at the same time. I got used to a particular small one, the one for 40 bucks that I found 10 bucks cheaper, and bought two more. Make sure your regular mouse works on top of your tablet because then you can use it as a mouse pad and not need the extra desk space. You will still want to use a mouse for things like menus and settings but that is less than 10% of time while editing pictures.

[@cliffrock3470]

Question 9 answered my tablet question- there is a learning curve to a tablet. thanks so much for this vdo

[@ivanescualexandru1196]

Yes, indeed. I've been working as a graphic designer for almost 7 years. I've stared using a tablet back in december 2022, when I received one as a xmas gift from my wife. I tried it a few times at the beginning and it was sooo awkward. Couple of months later, I started using it only to paint and detailing... and all of the sudden I found myself using it like a mouse, lol. Then, I expanded it to both my monitors (I originally limited it just to the monitor where Ps was running). After about a month, it felt completely natural. I even play some strategy games with it :) Incremental steps and persistence are the secret.... like most things in life, I guess :) Right... I forgot: reason I mentioned my work experience: the positive impact of the tablet in time saving alone is huuuge! I can literally do the same task (selections, paining, detailing) at least 3-4 times faster. I've been working with one hand behind my back for 5 and a half years, lol

[@puppeli]

When i got a drawing tablet, i remember it taking me couple of weeks to get used to it. If you dont think you want to spent 2 weeks getting used to a drawing tablet, you can consider pen displays. Pen displays have no learning curve. If you have ever used a pen, you will know how to use it. Although pen displays are several times more expensive than simple drawing tablets.

[@ivanescualexandru1196]

@@puppeli I would love to try one out. I would need to behave extremely well for Santa to consider it, lol.

[@shapomacro]

I bought myself a graphics tablet a couple of years ago to process my macro photographs. In this genre there is a lot of dirt from the camera sencor, dust on insects and much more. And working with a tablet has speeded up my work by an order of magnitude.

Could you please tell me more about this, because I’m considering this solution. Do you use Photoshop Elements on your iPad (or what software are you using)? What pen do you use? Do you transfer projects back and forth between your IPad and Mac and why? Thanks very much for your response.

[@alternativethoughts13]

@@leannatimmerman9922 Hi, I predominantly use Lightroom for edits on my iPad. I'm finding it easier to dodge and burn using the Apple Pencil; using the brush tool and removing spots and sensor dust using samples feel much easier on an iPad. I do use Elements, but not much. I don't use a Mac, so I rely on Adobe Cloud (with the CC subscription) to transfer files to Desktop editing app once I'm done. I recommend that you check it out with someone who already own an iPad; or, maybe request the local Apple store to install Photoshop Elements for you to try out.

I use a graphics tablet for everything right now, not just Photoshop. I once got a battered old Wacom Bamboo tablet from a colleage to try, and I certainly had to get used to it, but when I did, there was no way back. I really think it is more comfortable for most use cases than a mouse. I also do digital art, and for that it is a no brainer. Thankfully, tablets are easy to get right now and their are options for every budget. Have you ever used a tablet with a screen, like a Cintiq? I use an Intuos Pro too, and I actually prefer it for my posture, as you looks straight on instead of down.

[@aattuull]

Good solid info ..Thank you... QUESTION ... What is the ideal colour profile for both Lightroom and Photoshop ????

[@clear_image_photos5477]

I got a huion tablet that was like $50 with pressure sensitivity and is better than the name brands and is large as the Wacom tablet for like $300. I highly recommend drawing tablets for masking with the pen tool and makes using the brush faster. In general I use it faster than a mouse, but also recommend a drawing glove.

[@phoenix2gaming346]

[@lola-to9om]

Graphics tablet for me was game changer I can create more personalised graphics and calligraphic content. But I bought it because I wanted to get into digital drawing and graphics tablets are the cheapest to start with.

[@michaela8802]

I’m guilty of this. I bought a tablet 2 years ago, tried it out for about 30 minutes and lost interest because it just wasn’t intuitive to me. I put it up on the shelf thinking I’ll figure it out later. It hasn’t moved from that spot. Even though I KNOW it’ll improve my workflow I’ve been dreading that initial learning curve. Thanks for the video, and the motivation 👊🏾

[@urbanshadow777]

It took me about 3 to 4 months to get used to it, but it is well worth the effort. 15 years on, I can't imagine doing my work without it. Even though it's not necessarily needed it takes about 25% less time on my workflow using the tablet which is great when you have literally thousands of school photos to edit.

[@magiettadetko1543]

Same here, I have never been able to learn how to use it precisely. How do you control where it lands? When I hover over the tablet, stop and make contact with the surface, it always lands pixels away from where I want it to be.

[@uhorne]

​@@magiettadetko1543you get used to it with time, in my experience. You can sometimes also adjust tablet dimensions so it's more comfortable to you. You probably also learn to hover the pen over areas, which let's you see where the mouse is, without clicking

[@bluemusic039]

I'm fully convinced you probably bought a cheap intuos? I have a couple of different graphic tablets at home and their beginner tablets are just... Not intuitive at all. I prefer a cheap huion graphic tablet on a daily basis. Doesn't compare to an expensive wacom tablet for sure, but their cheap tablets need so much fiddling to feel alright, when a huion feels "normal" right out of the box. 😅

[@magiettadetko1543]

[@stevenlitvintchouk3131]

I have a tablet, but I can't get accustomed to constantly switching between the tablet and the keyboard shortcuts on the keyboard. The alternative seems to be to use the tablet's pen to select from the dropdown menus, but that's slower work than keyboard shortcuts.

[@randomscandinavian6094]

I think the biggest difficulty when adjusting to using a tablet is the fact that you are looking at your screen and not the surface under the nib, like you do with pen and paper. For this I’m now considering one of the fancy tablets with a dedicated screen. First time I used a tablet for work it only took me 2 weeks of full day work to get tendinitis in my shoulder. Partial frozen shoulder and almost two years to get back to normal. Physiotherapy was more expensive than the tablet as well. So it’s important to be aware of the dangers of extended use if your arm isn’t used to these new movements.

[@billwilliams4281]

I've really been interested in using a tablet, but I don't want to 'break the bank' to test one out. That budget friendly Intuos line looks really appealing. Good stuff, very helpful information Unmesh!

There’s only one thing that drives me crazy and I’ve never solved: when I move a slider with the pen, say for example to “-10”, when I lift the pen tip, the slider moves just as I lift. How do you deal with this as your movements always seem so precise!

[@mikethespike7579]

No way could I have done a lot of my work without a graphic tablet. The amount of precision I sometimes needed would have been impossible without it. A Wacom Cintiq is the tool of my choice, but I've also had good results using a Wacom Intuos. The Cintiq is just more comfortable to work on. Anyone interested in acquiring a Cintig or similar brand for photo editing, my advice is to avoid going for the giant 20 to 24 inch models. A 16 inch model with 1920 x 1080 resolution offers the best value for money.

A tablet is not necessary to edit a picture in the same way a DSLR is not necessary to take a picture. You can take a fantastic picture on a mobile phone but if you were to use a mobile phone for wedding photography you are limiting yourself to not being able to zoom in substantially, you will be limited to not being able to shoot high iso without excessive noise or be able to shoot with wide open fast lenses for faster shutter speeds. Also you run into compatibility issues with flash and other things that help in situations where you dont know what you are turning up to. Yes you can shoot a wedding with a mobile if planned right but commercially its just not viable. When you are working professionally and time is money and if like me you had loads of school photos to clean up, yes it is almost an essential part of the kit in that regard. In summary it depends on what you are doing.

I have a tablet and would have LOVED to replace my mouse with a tablet. Sadly though, I'm a lefty, but use the mouse with my right hand. Reconfiguring all keyboard shortcuts to the numpad on my keyboard or learning to write with my right hand is really too much work. I wish there was another solution.

I'm also a lefty and use my mouse with my right hand and I also use the wacom pro. Just configure the wacom for left hand use and the controls will be on the right. You just use your left hand for drawing etc as normal and you can use your mouse in your right hand as normal. I often use both at the same time as I still prefer the mouse for going into Bridge and also moving sliders. It might seem strange for the first few days but once you get the hang of it you will never go back to only using a mouse.
