Drawing tablet
| Wacom Cintiq has a screen, but it's crazy expensive. You should stick with Wacom Intuos or Bamboo, it's not bad as you imagine, it works pretty well and I say this from experience.
| Specially because it's your first time doing digital art, you may want to stick with the Bamboo since it's the more affordable one.
| my first tablet was a huion, ~30 USD i think? it wasn't the best, but it was dirt cheap and worked just fine. get something like that to help decide if you like digital art, then invest in a better tablet
| you'll get used to it soon enough. don't worry about getting a screenless one.

| point: screen or screenless both ok

| So I've been doodling here and there via pencil and paper, and realized that I want to try doing digital art using PaintToolSAI, but dont know what to exactly use as the "pencil", because im no master at a mouse. A friend of mine has a wacom tablet which he described as like a mouse emulator but like a pen and pad feel to it, but theres no screen to show where you last marked. Any suggestions on a drawing tablet that doesnt lag when drawing and can see the screen?
