      @squirrelsize said in Your suggestions, please, for switch to real digital:

      I have the 10.5 256 GB because I wanted to carry it around in my backpack and pull it out and draw when hanging out at coffee shops or at a friends house. But if you are planning on doing most of your work in your studio or at home, I would go with the 12.9. Also another thing when considering what size to purchase, the 12.9 doesn't take video in HD like the smaller Ipad Pros, not sure why.

      Sure the 12.9 iPad Pro takes HD video. 720p hd @ 30 FPS, 1080p hd @ 30 or 60 FPS, 4K video @ 30 FPS. These specs are right from Apples website.

          @smceccarelli They do have the pressure sensitivity. It works like a dream. I like the size of the regular ipad as well. It is easy to carry around and hold when I am working in a chill environment like the couch or the orthodontist waiting room. I can't speak more highly. It's pretty awesome that they are going on sale too!

            Not trying to drag this out too much, just tech-illiterate here.
            Does anyone know if/how I would be able to "use" the file formats between an iPad and a Windows 7 PC using Photoshop CS6?
            Or, once I transfer the iPad files using the SanDisk flash drive or Wi-Fi, will I be able to open them in my Windows 7 PC so I can use them on a website, email them, enter the SVS Forum challenges, etc.?
            Thanks, again.

              @maureen From Procreate you can export files in all sorts of formats - PSD (or photoshop format) preserves layers or save as JPEG, PNG, Tiff etc to upload to email, websites or SVS forums wherever you like.

                @maureen Please DO drag it out more, I am learning a ton. I am also a newbie to a lot of this and pretty tech illiterate, so I am finding everyone's input extremely helpful!!

                  I am a 46 year old art teacher and I love my surface book 2 with the pen. I just got Adobe cc so I will let you know how it goes.

                    I was in the same siutation as you just 2 months or so ago and I went with the Ipad Pro 12.9 and it's amazing! Ipad Pro + Apple Pencil + Procreate has made drawing digitally soooo much better compared to when I was trying to draw with Photoshop and a wacom tablet. My main issue with Photoshop was that it was just to complex, Procreate is much simpler, easy to navigate, and is a blast to draw with. And the Apple Pencil is the best stylus I've ever used.

                    My internet is terrible but I have had no trouble with transferring images because I simply connect the Ipad's Lighting cable (the cable that comes with the ipad to charge it) in my Ipad and plug the USB cable into my PC to transfer images.

                      Thanks, @dan-tavis This all sounds so great. I hope my Windows 7 OS won't be a problem. I can hardly wait to buy stuff and get started.
