Best Mechanical Pencil Lead Size For Sketching

[0.2 lb] Great lead supply for my mechanical pencil. These are very thick and so far, not a single has broken even when I extend a bit. Very happy with these lead refills.

[0.15 lb] Essential to remove stuck filters... A tip... Use a lead pencil on the threads of the filter before installing. The layer of pencil lead acts like a lubricant and makes removal so much easier.

[1.45 lb] Fits me perfectly Aus size 14. Great for urban sketching, lots of handy pockets for carrying art materials.

[2.4 oz / 70 g] Smooth mechanical action, simple design, convenient size.

[Drawstring] These bags are small in size so I add lead shot to the sand to greatly increase their weight. I have 10 bags that I've used this way for 15+ years. The stitches on one bag finally let go, so I re-ordered more. The pouch is double-zippered for a better seal. I've not had any leakage in any of my bags. Another great feature is the buckle on the strap/handle. This allows it to be buckled over a base or upright for added security. I also own the other larger sizes and mix lead shot in with the ballast sand. They are very heavy and work great when flying butterflies and hanging large backgrounds.

[Steel] For those doing studio work the title 'Wall Plate' may lead a person to be looking for walls. However, this Avenger plate is really more that something you hang on a wall and look at, that is a photo. This plate allows the exteremely popular 5/8 system to be converted into the more common in movies, the C-Stand system. This plate seems to be the last size of this function available from Avenger. A slightly smaller size would also useful.

[6.3 x 3 x 0.7"] If you want the Apple Pencil without the Apple price, this is the one! Has a nice pencil feel, like the Apple Pencil. Being able to charge the same way the Apple Pencil does is also a plus. Only thing I'll say is that if you want it for drawing please know that it doesn't have the pressure sensitivity

[USB-C] I used a Cintiq 24" for years doing industrial design sketching. I wanted one to keep at my home office and got a 16" Pro; I was nervous about the size but the 16" is plenty for doing ID work. The high resolution of the Pro model was great. I did not get the remote hot key device, a wireless keyboard did everything I needed. The one area of disappointment was the color seemed slightly dim, the whites were not quite white. This may be user error in set up however. Great product good value overall. I use Adobe Fresco and Sketchbook Pro, and it all works well with this drawing screen.

[0.5 lb] Right now I am using it to carry my outdoor sketching kit. As a camera bag it has ample room for a single DSLR or mirrorless and an extra lens, though I may never use it for that purpose. The shoulder strap is fully adjustable and can be set quite long for cross carry. The webbing on the side is designed to allow the attachment of accessory pouches or other clip on items. And of course the Nat Geo logo is probably the neatest part - it gets a lot of notice and comments. I have this one and the smaller pouch version and like them both.
