Wacom: Graphire vs. Intuos

[Magicjuand]

Ok quick question folks,
Whats better the latest Graphire or the Intuos?
I've worked with the Intuos and I think its awesome, but is there any significant difference from a graphire? Graphire's have less pressure sensitivity... but how much does this differ or really matter? Graphire is also cheaper....
:confused:

The old truism "you get what you pay for" applies here my friend.

The intuos2 is better...

[Nimrod]

I had a graphire2 for awhile, and then upgraded to the intuos2, and you would be very very surprised at what the difference in size and pressure sensitivity makes... I am by far very satisfied with the intuos2 and it is well worth the expense if you are seriously into making digital art.

EDIT: oops, gekitsu reminded me, almost forgot about TILT! If you use painter, this is a godsend. unquestionably worth the money.

[gekitsu]

a friend of mine owns a graühire2 and i have my old trusty intuos1. if you can afford an intuos, go for it.

i could not imagine working without tilt/bearing sensitivity again.

I use a 5x4 graphire2... it doesnt have a broad range of senstivity but it works fine for me.

I mainly use intuos for painter and the tilt is damn amazing.

If you have the money definitely definitely INVEST in the Intuos.

The graphire "will do" if its all you can afford, its what I have, and work with. But I've also used the Intuos and love it, there is a big difference. I assure you I'll invest in the Intuos as soon as I can afford it.
