In the end, its hard not to recommend the Intuos3 6×11 tablet for photographers, designers, or artists. Like most Wacom products that have preceded it, the Intuos3 is exceptionally well-made and easy to use. The 6×11 size is arguably “perfect” for most users because it provides an ample active area and an even larger base.
If there is any drawback to the purchase of the Intuos3 it would have to be cost. At the full retail price of $369 some younger artists in college or struggling freelancers may not be able to afford this tablet. Of course, there are some things that are simply much more difficult if not impossible to do without a pen tablet. There are some cheap pen tablets on the market with similar active areas that retail for less than $100 … but absolutely none of those “imitation” tablets even come remotely close to the capability and durability of the Intuos3.
If you can justify the cost, the Intuos3 6×11 makes the perfect companion for your studio. People who arent using Photoshop or Painter on a daily basis probably dont have any need for this type of product, but if youre a working photographer or artist who is currently only using a mouse and a traditional desktop or laptop computer then you absolutely must go out and purchase this product.
Intuos 3 6×11 is available at an academic discount price of $329.
