High quality, versatile, great companion for Kamvas

I think Huion products are of high quality, excellent function and functionality. This keyboard did not disappoint. Like all other Huion products, it is made with high quality materials and components. The buttons and dial look very "professional" and are responsive. If you have a Kamvas graphics tablet screen, it will be a great companion. You almost don't need a keyboard to work with graphics. Just your stylus and this keyboard. The radial wheel is a little more limited than I would have liked, but still quite handy for scrolling and zooming. I was actually hoping for more programming options, like advancing the timeline in the DaVinci Resolve video editing software, but I think they'd have to build a dedicated interface for that. However, the keys are still programmable and can help me with all editing functions. Drawing and photo apps clearly benefit from both the circular dial and the programmable buttons. For example, for applications that allow you to rotate the palette by scrolling, this makes choosing palette colors not only easy, but fun! That's exactly what makes these graphical tools great, they make work very fun, allow you to customize your workspace and provide you with exactly the tools you want to use, organized the way you want them. Setup is easy. Plug it in to charge and it takes less than an hour out of the box. One charge should last for about 100 hours of use. Then either plug the connection cable into your device or use the included Bluetooth dongle for a wireless connection. You can now download the driver. They have both a driver compatible with their tablets and a driver for a regular workstation. I think you don't even need to install a driver if you already have a Kamvas driver installed, but I could be wrong. My impression is that Kamvas is already distributed on KD100. No proper user manual is included, just a guide to download the manual and driver. You must be online to read or download the manual. With a little internet searching, you can find many instructional videos on how to use Huion products, including this KD100. Overall I give it 5 stars because it is a very high quality and very versatile tool. at a more than reasonable price. And to make work fun.
