The Intuos4 Digital Tablet from Wacom is a digital tablet, designed for use by digital artists and photographers. Ideal for use with imaging applications such as Corel Painter and Adobe Photoshop, the tablet allows you to manipulate images with a digital pen: ergonomically identical to a traditional ink pen.
The Intuos4 is capable of recording 2048 levels of pressure, giving it the ability to recognize extremely subtle pressure for light brush strokes. It features a bank of customizable ExpressKeys and a finger-sensitive Touch Ring for enhanced control. These controls are located on one side of the tablet, in a symmetrical layout. This allows you to rotate the tablet 180°, giving equal functionality to both lefties and righties.
US residents who purchase this tablet are entitled to additional software from Wacom. You can download Nik Color Efex Pro WE6 and Wacom Brushes 3.0, both of which require Photoshop or Photoshop Elements to function. You are also entitled to your choice of two out of the following three options: Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 for Mac & Windows, Autodesk SketchBook Express 2010, and Corel Painter Sketch Pad. This allows you to choose the software that best suits your needs. All software is accessed via download from Wacom's web site.
- Small size is perfect for professionals who want a portable tablet for use with a notebook computer
- Sensitive tablet can recognize 2048 levels of pressure, starting at a single gram
- ExpressKeys are programmable, giving you ready access to frequently used program functions
- Touch Ring can be configured to control up to 4 functions in each application
- Ambidextrous design is great for righties and lefties alike
- Slim-profile tablet features gently sloping palm rests and a cordless battery-free pen for ergonomic bliss
- Interchangeable pen nibs include standard, flex, stroke, and hard felt

I am a photographer who has been wanting a tablet for some time. So I finally just bought this. I had heard how great these tablets were from a few others, so I was expecting it to be pretty great. However, when I got it out and started using it -- IT BLEW ME AWAY!!! It is SO AMAZING! I love the incredible sensitivity to pen pressure...being able to draw a hairline stroke up to as thick as my brush setting in one fluid movement is just awesome. And for me, one of the most useful abilities is to dodge/burn different parts of the picture by simply pushing harder/softer without having to mess with the exposure level. I am totally in love with this new tablet!!!
I also want to add this: this is my first tablet experience, but I found the Intuos 4 VERY EASY to customize, yet extremely versatile. I am amazed at just how custom it can really be.
I was also concerned about the fact that my monitor is not the same aspect ratio as the tablet, but it hasn't seemed to matter at all. What I draw is what I get.
I can't think of any negatives -- it is awesome.

3 things:
Drivers crash on Windows
Surface sheet is to rough
Replacement nibs are too soft and expensive.
Wacom may be waiting for the released of Intuos5 to solve the problems.
Customers are complaining on Wacom Customer Care Forums and signing petitions to Wacom CEO... but these are not working.
1 solution to 2 problems:
Let Wacom replace the surface sheet with the Intuos3 surface (not available after one year of petitions).
Or be prepared to wear-out nibs every week and stick a hand-made surface over your beautifull high-tech device.

Comments about Wacom Intuos4 Digital Tablet (Small):
I am a casual artist and was looking for something easy to use and do what I was looking for. It indeed does what I was looking for. However, the ease of use, not so much. It also is very sensitive and hard to navigate menus. However, the power of this tablet makes up for it.

Comments about Wacom Intuos4 Digital Tablet (Small):
I got this tablet for photo editing, and like other reviews of the small Intuos 4 stated, it is perfect for this purpose. If you were sketching, I would say the larger models would work better. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was I wish it had the lit button descriptions like the larger models.
I use this tablet with a 17" laptop (on my lap),so the compact size is perfect.

Comments about Wacom Intuos4 Digital Tablet (Small):
I previously owned aTrust basic tabled, updated to the Bamboo and now the Intuos 4 ... This is the ultimate tool for photo retouching. The essential part that every serious digital photographer should have for developing the RAW files.It has numerous extra functions that makes its use easy and efficient, like that it can be personalized for each of the programs you use, so I end up using it with almost all the softwares on my Mac ...

The wheel is super cool for quickly changing brush size and rotating your image for easier pen stroke angles with your wrist. The pen is so cool I already hate the mouse haha. The area might be a little small but the price made this one more appealing.

Comments about Wacom Intuos4 Digital Tablet (Small):
Warning!: you thought you had a great mouse for the high price of $50.00. Ha, Ha. So did I...up till now. Having used Adobe Photoshop for over 5 years now, I steadily bought mouse after mouse looking for the help I needed with photoshop. Forget it, it doesn't exist until you buy this. What a difference in usage, speed, and more. Worth every dollar. Hours of time saved and more accuracy when using the pen which is also provided. Can't wait to get the larger tablet.

Comments about Wacom Intuos4 Digital Tablet (Small):
I bought the intuos4 small tablet for my graphic design class thinking it was just another "thing" we needed. when i started using it i noticed so many interesting features and details I could add to my drawings! its the easiest thing to use too! insert the disk and instal and plug in the usb - DONE! I love how easy and portable it is and that i can use it as a mouse pad too! the only thing i would say isn't my favourite is that it takes a while to get used to it.

Comments about Wacom Intuos4 Digital Tablet (Small):
I'm a fashion and beauty photographer, so I spend quite a bit of time retouching skin. Doing it with a mouse was alright, but having a tablet makes it so much easier and more precise. I'd compare it to trying to type your name on a keyboard with your chin, as opposed to using your fingers. Intricate details are so much easier to manage, and it just lends an entirely different look and feel to the finished image. Holding the pen is a lot gentler on my wrist, I found, when retouching for long periods of time. If you're serious about photoshop or retouching, you'll definitely want to consider adding this to your toolbox!

The programmable short cut keys are great for memories the features I use the most. I also love that the pen came with different tips to help with precision of the work when working on small details.
I have no complaints about this product.

I originally bought this for use with Adobe Illustrator but I find it useful for touching up and enhancing photos also. The small size tablet is plenty big for at home use and doesnt take up a lot of desk space. Once you usr it you wont go back to a mouse!!

I replaced an Intuos2 tablet with the Intuos4. Much better tablet. Love the brush size and zoom ring with the function buttons. More sensitive then the Intuos2 and I love the hover position feature. The small is perfect for my working area. Also love the left or right hand user feature.
