    1st review

    This tool is just about the coolest thing I have ever used! Revolutionizing the feel and control for computer artists. Doing fully digital pieces is a jiffy with the cintiq. The pressure sensitivity is great, I used a 15 inch cintiq for 3 years and sometimes it felt like I was trying to draw with a tree branch dipped in ink, so little pressure control, but the new 21 inch feels like I am drawing with a nice brush dipped in ink. Having a Cintiq saves me so much time in the workplace.

    Is a Cintiq necessary? No,...but is it the most useful piece of art equipment I own? Yep. It can cut Three cheers for useful technology!!!

    The screen is very large and high quality. I've had no problems with scratches on the screen. It has without a doubt improved my the speed and quality at which I can create digital paintings. The screens ability to rotate and change angles is very handy. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is because it's too heavy to put in your lap and the screen gets rather hot. There is a little bit of parallax but the screen is so big that you won't find yourself working near the edges very often so it's not too much of a problem. Dual monitors didn't really work well with it since you'd be switching between a different device for each monitor so you may feel that you're losing some space using the Cintiq.

    This thing is a dream. It is definitely the best piece of equipment I own. It has saved me time and it is a blast to use. If you are a professional and you draw or paint a lot and want to go to the digital side this is the best tool to use. Great control and response.

    I like these Wacom Cintiq tablets because they are a touchscreen, and when connected to a computer loaded with the Celsys, Inc. -STYLOS - 2D animation software, great things happen. Also, for doing Photoshop, it's excellent for tonal and texture artwork.

    Excellent input device/screen. I love it. It feels very natural to draw/paint with it. I don't know what a mouse feels like anymore.

    There really is no description to do the Cintiq justice. As a digital artist it saves SO much production time when you can actually draw on the screen. Priceless.

    This tool is every digital artists dream. The ability to draw and paint directly onto the screen. Mixing an endless amount of color without mess or cleanup. The Cintiq 21UX was the single best investment I made in my artistic career and is my prize possession. Using the stylus to draw, paint and even erase is second nature. The Cintiq combined with powerful applications such as sketchbook pro, photoshop and painter open a whole new dimension in artistic expression.
