Wacom Intuos4 L – Review

Best buy ever! This is my first tablet and it took only about an hour to get used to it. Great stuff! It does everything you expect from a tablet, is very well build (quality-wise) and has a very ergonomic design. Looks good, too. Thumbs up!

When researching which tablet to choose I was unsure if M or L would be the best size. The downside of the L is, that you need to do big movements with your arm if you need to move the mouse-cursor from the lower-left to the upper-right corner (eg). The overall recommendation was to use big tablets for big screens. I did not regret to use the L-size.

Nikon D3s review

On Friday there was a Nikon sponsored presentation of the new Nikon D3s at the Zuerich Zoo. Unfortunately there were too many attendees, so that the time for playing with the camera was very (very) limited.

Here is my first impression:

- just as good (build-wise) as any one-digit D-camera from Nikon (D1, D2, D3, …)
- all the features a D3 has
- High ISO is amazing, ISO 10,000 still looks good to me
- Movie quality is outstanding (compared to my consumer digicam)

Update 20100218: It’s a great camera and the high ISOs work very well. I had a chance to take it to a test yesterday night when the police was arresting some people in the building opposite of my home:
