Wacom Cintiq 24HD touch and Cintiq 22HD tablets announced

Are you a graphics professional? Wacom has just introduced two new tablets for your kind – the Cintiq 24HD touch (24″) and Cintiq 22HD (22″). Both of them boast of HD displays, ultrawide viewing angles, premium colour performance, precision pen and natural multi-touch.

The Cintiq 24HD touch combines multi-touch with Wacom’s pen technology. According to the company, the Cintiq 24HD touch closely replicates the experience of working with two hands when using traditional materials such as paints, markers and clay while giving the artist powerful capabilities that only exist in today’s creative software applications.

On the other hand the Cintiq 22HD offers a pen-on-screen experience that delivers the same natural feel, response and results derived from working with traditional brushes, pencils and pens. To improve workflow and creative output, the Cintiq 22HD offers eight customizable, application-specific ExpressKeys located on each side of the display’s bezel. Additionally, user-defined Touch Strips, conveniently placed on the back of each side of the display, can be used for such functions as zoom, scroll, brush size and canvas rotation.

The Cintiq 22HD is now available for $1999, while the Cintiq 24HD touch will be available in August for $3699.
