Just like the title I'm im in the market for a tablet, this will mainly be used for Illustrator work, then moving onto Photoshop once im used to it.

I've never used one before, not sure which brand i should be looking at either, obviously im looking stuff up atm, but if anyone could give me and input to help me, I'd be greately appreciated.

Budget wise, its hard to say, possibly £100?
I do a lot of artwork in my spare time, so i don't mind spending more cash if i need to although if i can get the same product cheaper i'd rather do that.
Comparing the Logitech G11 to the G15 for example (minus the screen).

I'm not sure what features to look for either, or what feature would honestly something i should ideally look out for?
 
I have a bamboo A5 tablet. It has 4 buttons and a scroller in the middle. I use it for my 3d cad, photoshop, general use on desktop instead of my mouse. There about £56. But if your doing heavy photo shop work i recommend a bigger one like A4 size or A2

thats mine :) just uploaded pic to facebook. Iv had the tablet for about 1 1/2 years and its shiney. its VERY easily cleaned and its impossible to stain (iv spilt coke over it and theres no stains and still works perfectly. Ill find you a review on youtube for it.


pen and stand come with it aswell. Thats worth £70 new if you buy separately. VERY good value for money.




its a good review :)

Funnily enough, I was going to ask this question too, so thanks to Unknownsock for asking it, and to Marc512 for answering it :-) I was thinking of going for a Wacom too. I'd say that A4 is about right for mid-range graphics work. A2 would be twice the display area of most current monitors, so consider desk space if you are going to opt for an A2 tablet.
