Zig 0.7mm Photo Signature Marker, Carded, Black

So far, so good with this pen! Am making our granddaughter a scrapbook and needed a pen that was easy to write with, didn’t smear and would be safe for pictures and the like! After waiting a couple of minutes, I tried to wipe what I had written on the back of a pic and it didn’t smear like some previous pens did! It dries quickly and the pen is just the right fine point to easily write with!

This one is excellent for writing on photos on either gloss or matte finishes. dries quickly, does not smear, fine point, black ink. Have had mine a cpiu-e maths an use it for maybe 50 photos a week. Has not dried out. I put the cap on whenever I am not using it for more than a few minutes. It also has not able though to the other side on any photo.I highly recommend this pen. Consider the 12 pack which is very cheap per pen if you think you will be using them on a lot of photos. Really handy to have them on several desks or wherever you work.

A friend made a photo book with lines for people to write in for his wife's birthday guests. I went looking and found these pens. I needed something that wrote clean and smooth on the matte photo paper, but also fried quickly as alot of people were writing on it, one after another. These worked perfectly! Really nice writing, didn't bleed through the paper and super quick dry time.Great for photo paper writing.

I work in the photo industry and was testing out pens to see which ones worked to sign on photo books as guest books. Tested tons of pens and found that this one worked really well if you give it 3-5 seconds to dry. Once dry, no smears from wiping my finger across it and no transfer to opposite page or bleed. It worked equally well on both real photographic prints (I tested on a luster finish) and a press-printed image. Not bad, just be careful of choosing a variety that has too fine of a point so it doesn't scratch and drag on the print. .5mm worked well too, but I wouldn't go smaller.

I purchased this pen so that I could write on the back of pictures. I make memory boxes for my son. I like to write interesting facts or stories that go along with the pictures I put in the box.I had no issues with the pen smearing! I just laid the pictures out for a few minutes snd the writing was dry.The pen is a good thickness for writing on photos and is pretty smooth. Would definitely recommend for any sort of art projects.

Worked great for awhile then dried out. Too expensive for short usage.

I ordered this pen to write in a semi-gloss/glossy photo book I ordered to be used as a guest book for a wedding. It has a fine tip and writes beautifully. It dries instantly and does not smear - even immediately after writing - which is what we needed! It also does not imprint or bleed onto the page it rests against when pages are flipped. VERY PLEASED!

I have several decades of photos I am working on inventorying and many of them have a glossy backing.This pen meets all the requirements for my needs for writing on such surfaces.
