For the majority of people, it is worth it to switch from mouse to tablet. It is more accurate using the pen rather than the mouse when doing PP work. The pen just seems more natural to use, like a pencil or paint brush. Oddly, it does take several days to get used to it and some people never seem to catch on and have to stay with the mouse.


+1. It takes a few days to get used to it but now I would never go back to using a mouse for Photoshop, etc. I still, however, use a mouse for my general office work.

Definitely a tablet! I can't even function using a mouse anymore. A tablet gives you so much more flexibility.

Tried the tablet and the problem i had with it was that you couldn't see the brush edge so you had no idea where you were when working with it.

With the mouse it is like using your finger to work on what you have and i find it to be easier.

But hey who knows one-day i may get to liking the tablet?


If caps lock is on the brush edge disappears and vice versa. Goes for all tools with circled edges. At least on the PC version.
