Is very smooth and the pencils glides very quickly.

If u love Bass...This Is It....its Really a Room Shaker Yall!!!!

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

In the mid-1950s when I was 10, I was attempting to photograph robins in my backyard using my Hopalong Cassidy camera. My mother called me and said, Here, take this salt shaker. Put salt on the birds tails so they can't fly away. I spent the rest of the day unsuccessfully trying to approach those birds. Now at 71, I just purchased the new Nikon AF-S 80-400 f4.5-5.6 G lens. The lens cost more than I wanted to spend, but the lens is even more than what I have always dreamed to own. The VR is exceptional, the focusing is fast and accurate, and the lens is super sharp. This is my fifth FX lens, and although each lens that I attach to my D600 is my favorite when I am shooting, this will be my go-to Florida bird lens. Since I am the type of photographer who actively seeks my subjects on long treks, usually without my tripod or monopod, a dependable, well balanced, exceptional lens with outstanding VR allows me to forgo my mother's salt shaker.

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.
