Product Description

The Cintiq 20WSX provides a widescreen alternative to Wacom s flagship Cintiq 21UX. Optimized for widescreen use, the Cintiq 20WSX offers a 1680 x 1050 resolution for high image quality, a wide viewing angle, and accurate color reproduction. With an aspect ratio of 16:10, the 20.1 diagonal display joins the Cintiq line in providing a best-of-class pen experience for working on screen. The work area size and shape provide space for creating and editing large images in great detail, previewing wide-format content, and positioning pallets and tool menus in an efficient desktop layout. The completely flat surface allows the hand and pen to glide over the surface of the Cintiq without bumping into bezels or borders. A dynamically-adjustable stand allows you to rotate the display up to 180deg. in each direction, incline the display from 10deg. to 65deg., and even remove it for comfortable lap use. Rear roller feet make the incline adjustments easy-the result is freedom to adjust the display to positions that work for you. Strategically-placed ExpressKeys and Touch Strips are programmable, allowing you to customize your Cintiq to your needs. ExpressKeys are easily accessible on either side of the display and provide quick access to keyboard shortcuts, modifier keys, and functions that minimize dependence on the keyboard for uninterrupted work sessions. Finger-sensitive Touch Strips are located on either side of the display for easy zooming, scrolling, or making tool adjustments without taking focus away from the pen tip. The Cintiq 20WSX combines the advantages of a large-format LCD monitor with the control, comfort, and productivity of Wacom s most sophisticated patented cordless, battery-free pen technology.

Reviewed on 2008-04-01 I draw with my whole arm I tried one of those litte dinky drawing pads, and felt like I was drawing inside of a broom closet with my arms tied to my sides. This product is about as good as it gets for that feel of drawing on paper or painting on a canvas on a computer. Once I set and got used to my function buttons I use them almost without thinking. The ability to rotate the monitor is a great bonus. You can set your pen sensitivity within Painter but not in photoshop per se, you can however set it in the wacom properties and you can test it while your setting it. Very nice.

Reviewed on 2008-03-22 Best investment for any digital artist!! As a digital artist, I have been using a Wacom Intuos tablet for years. I finally saved up to purchase one of the 20" Cintiqs. I have to say, it speeds up my productivity ten fold. I even started a digital painting (using Corel painter) by starting the drawing directly in the program instead of scanning in a image. Something I haven't done before since I don't have a steady enough hand for a tablet. The 20" inch Cintiq has zoom sliders on the back vs the 21" that has them on the front. I also am able to switch to a second monitor with a click of the one of the side buttons. One of the best items I ever bought. I would recommend one of these to every digital/graphic artist around!!

Reviewed on 2008-03-04 I keep finding new uses for it I owned an Intuos tablet for a while, but I didn't use it all that much. I found it too awkward to not be looking at my hand while drawing. This does everything as advertised (although I can't figure out how to get my macbook pro's display to be secondary to the Cintiq's display, instead I keep it in mirror mode). What surprised me was how well vector graphics can be created with it. I'm finding other new uses for it all the time. Throw away your mouse!

Reviewed on 2008-01-25 Out of box disappointment Unfortunately, I received my 20" display directly from Wacom and it had debris lodged inside the LCD screen, an inch off center of the screen. At first I thought it was a dead pixel, but after sending it to Wacom to see if I could get it fixed, I was told that 2mm x 2mm was within specification of Wacom's allowable defects and my dot was only 1mm wide. The "dot" is a foreign object lodged inside the LCD screen, too, and cannot be removed. The manufacturer allows this type of anomoly in your brand new product and it is not acceptable to me. I am sorely disappointed because I am a product designer who understands that there are some defects that are unavoidable, but if you get a brand new product, and defects are built into the warrantee (not stated in the warrantee manual, BTW). You have to pay to figure that out. End result, nice concept, poor standards. I have nice big dot to look at when drawing on my screen, now. Buyer beware.
