Wacom Bamboo tablet.....You got one?

[Marcel]

Ive started using one this week (plugged into my Mac).
I've been using an A4 Medion jobbie up until this, and I'm finding it hard switching to the Bamboo.

I decided to do the swap for the (smaller) Bamboo for a couple of reasons. Mainly because it's a recognises brand which comes with full Mac driver support.

However, I'm finding it difficult, partly because of the size, but mainly because it's sooo sensitive. I'm not the steadiest person in the world but I'm certainly not shakey, holding the pen above the tablet, trying to keep it still and it just seems reeeeallly sensitive.

I've had a look and can't see any options for actual pen sensitivity (only nib / press).

Is it just me?

Marcie,

Not sure whether you're aware but there is a Wacom forum run by the company here in Europe... http://www.wacom-europe.com/forum/default.asp?lang=uk

The only problem is that it's down for maintenance at the moment.

It's not just you. I got one recently too and it does seem really, really sensitive. It doesn't help that the desk I'm currently working on doesn't have anywhere to place my forearm.

We're moving down under this week, so I just packed it up and will get it out again when we're settled and I've got a better desk to work on.

Have you installed the driver on the disk? It has a program included so you can customize the buttons and change the sensitivity.

I've used one for the last 6 months, wont ever go back to a normal mouse.. the tablet is so much easier and quicker for photo editing and just generally alot nicer to use.
