Hello,
I already tried zbrush two years ago with my mouse and it was okay for rough shapes. But I always found it hard to do detailing with the mouse only so I am thinking of getting a graphic tablet.
Now I don’t want to spend too much money for my first tablet. First I want to see how much I’ll use it.
vs
For drawing only I think I wouldn’t need touch, but I am not sure if this also applies to zbrush. What would you recommend me?
Do you have a trackball or are you dragging your mouse all over the desk? Tablets are great for about anything graphics related.
I am using a mouse atm but I meant something different. Both tablets that I have posted are equalivent. They only differ about the touch functions, the first tablet only works with a pen. The second has multi touch support like Scroll, zoom, rotate, and swipe.
Do you think I need multi touch support?
You could try Monopricetablet. I don’t have it myself but I kept reading a lot of good things about it. Considering it’s really cheap and sturdy, I would be myself really interested to try it alongside my Intuos5. Even though I have Wacom for years I am currently feed by all these problems on Windows 8.
I hope that helps. I would ask for anyone who has Monoprice to write a bit about their experiences with this particular brand.
Chiming in with a XP-Pen Artist 22E Pro Screen Drawing tablet 22" . I use it for Maya, Zbrush, and digital painting.
I use it at home for the last year and didnt have any problem with it so far. I know this model is not in your choices, but if the quality of the XP-Pen model you’re looking for is on par with the Artist 22E Pro , it should be good for zbrush and maya stuff.

I started with an Intuos 3 while using ZBrush and Photoshop a long time ago. About a year ago I picked up a Medium Intuos Pro which has multi-touch functions and can be switched off at any time. The pressure sensitivity is so much better and touch support is useful. You might fork out $130 more than the ones you mentioned but is a good investment.
