iPad Pro/Astropad
« on: December 20, 2015, 13:46:28 »
Not sure if this is the correct section but please move if necessary.
I have recently purchased an iPad Pro for a convenient way of taking a selection of images to show to others as well as  the usual mobile web browsing etc.
I have also purchased what seems like an elusive Pencil, I have paired this with the Astropad app which effectively turns the iPad into a editing tablet, I have a conventional Walcom but working on the actual image seems much more precise, it is early days with this combo but seems very promising. I will get a hair cut next week  8)

Jacques, that looks like a great combo.
It certainly does seem like it's more precise.
Thank you for enlightening me, I am only short of an iPad and pencil though :D

Good to hear new gear experiences and options. The pencil is pretty expensive but from what I've read about it so far, it's also clearly better than the rest.

I have Astropad on my iPad3 and it works fairly well.  I think it would better with a pen like is possible on the iPad Pro.  Hopefully they will add pen support to older iPads soon.
