Wacom Cintiq 12UX sighted

Edvarcl Heng | Nov 02, 2007

That fancy new tablet we reported on previously has surfaced at the Imaging Expo Singapore.

As claimed, it has a 1,280 x 800-pixels resolution with a 24-bit color depth and it looks spiffy in classic black. But while it sounds small on paper, the real article (504 x 270 x 17mm) is a little larger than we expected. But the width is meant to accommodate the 10 programmable custom keys (five on each side of the screen).

The display comes with a stand and can be tilted to both a 25- or 65-degree angle.

The Cintiq 12WX will be available in the Asia-Pacific region (excluding China, Hong Kong and Japan) by end December at a retail price of S$1,999. A software bundle comprising Corel Painter Essentials 3 and Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.0 will be included as well.
