I am a application developer and heavily document everything I create. For me, it's a way of fleshing out my thoughts into something tangible, which allows me to make order out of the chaos that is thought.

There is no other pen that I'd rather do this with than the Vision Elite. Since I started using the Vision Elite I have never used any other pen. The smoothness of writing with this pen is astounding. As well, the superfine 0.5mm tip is wonderful for me, as I am a person who writes very small. I spend many hours every day writing and rarely does my hand hurt, due to the extremely low pressure required to write with this pen. The cramping that you get when writing with your typical cheap pen is a thing of the past with this beauty.

Don't let the price of these pens scare you. They are extremely durable and have a very large ink supply. For example, I've used the same pen with the same ink supply to write over 200 pages and the pen still writes like it's the first time I've used it. The shell of the pen is extremely sturdy and I've never had one break or fall apart.

I might sound like a spokesman for Uniball, but I simply feel so adament about this pen that I would have to recommend it to anybody who cares about having a quality writing tool.

5.0 out of 5 stars "I thought I was a freak...", an artist's confession, April 12, 2007

I didn't know anyone else felt as passionately as I do about this pen. What can I say? I'm an artist who has been working with black pen on vellum, and the UVE is pretty much the only pen I use. I have used the regular uniball vision, but it doesn't come close to this. The black from the UVE is absoletely beautiful: a very black black. It goes on clean and smooth and dries pretty quickly. And the "micro" .5 mm tip is perfect because I do very tight detail work. I have tried several other disposable pens, and this is the one. Also, the pen won't leak on flights which is more useful than you may think. I've had cheaper pens ruin clothes and bags before--not this one. Don't let the price turn you off. Really, if the quality of your pen is important to you, it is worth every penny. I'm gonna get back to drawing.

These pens are great. The micro is crisp, draws a steady uniform line, and ends neatly. The closest thing to a rapidiograph that you get in a standard pen. Well worth the price. I buy them in bulk and they are the only pen I buy.
