Pilot Mini Mechanical Pencils

Is very smooth and the pencils glides very quickly.

Haven't used it already but will be using it as a pilot

I have this set up to a Mac Mini via the provided USB-C cable. Despite this being a mechanical drive, the data transfer rates are fast - ~240MB/s. I use this as my primary storage for photographs, videos, music, etc. I was concerned about the drive noise, while it's not silent like my Samsung T7 scratch disk, it's not as loud as others have stated. It's fine when in use for me, most of the time it's sleeping.

Love it!! My first experience with a mechanical keyboard. I purchased the mini version which is perfect for my laptop. The regular-sized keyboard would be too wide. My next keyboard for my work station will definitely purchase the logi regular sized keyboard.

Love this device and I'm going to use it with ForeFlight as a pilot.

Very simple to sync. Just as good as other top rated pencils.

Weighted - solid - easy to find in our drawer of crayons, markers, pens, pencils, etc.!

It's still working as expected with over two years of use as an airline pilot.

The best mechanical hard drive I had ever used.

I purchased both the 10mm and 11mm Artisans and found the 11mm definitely sharper when comparing lettering at 400% on a calendar in a room shot, however at 4 inches the 10mm was amazing. Purely by accident while shooting tests with the 10mm with the Lumix S1r I focused the camera on a pad of paper I had written notes on in pencil. Along side of the pad were 8 or so new Dixon pencils with gold stamped lettering all sitting on a dining room table cluttered with computers etc. At f8 with the lens so close the background dropped beautifully, but what astounded me was the detail of the lead pencil writing on the paper the the gold leaf stamping on the pencils. Photo had Color, contrast and even a bit of micro detail in the paper texture and writing. Based on this and other tests, this is a great lens for very closeup experimental work. Colors are accurate and vibrant. Lens is seemingly well corrected for this type of work with Capture one correcting purple fringes. For room shots and sharpness stick with 11mm unless you need the extra angle.
