Wacom Cintiq 24HD Tablet Demonstrations

Since we all can't or don't need to buy the top of the line Cintiq 24HD by Wacom, the next best thing is to play with one at a store. If that's still not possible, then I recommend watching some demonstrations!

This demo and review is a little over 9 minutes, but is very helpful. He demos the stylus as well as the scroll wheel and buttons. Skip to 7:50 for his opinions of the cons. Cintiq 24HD Review and Demo.

This video shows the Cintiq 24hd in action! I'm not a fan of the music, but I liked watching his progress. Drawing on the Cintiq 24HD.

Not the best video, but gives you a good idea of the size of the 24HD. Quick review and demonstration of the Wacom Cintiq 24HD.

Architect Stylus Better Than Wacom Stylus?

As much as I really like my Wacom stylus, I'm glad there are alternatives that can give the Wacom digitizers a run for their money.

Aluminum-machined styluses are all the rage these days, it seems, with Arctic Accessories’s $23 Architect Stylus the latest in a long line of impeccably-designed devices. But while the Architect may take its cues from Adonit’s line of capped pens and the sleek figure of Wacom’s Bamboo, the Architect winds up being in a class all its own.

uDraw Game Tablet for Wii Review

For the kids in your life, the uDraw might be a great graphics tablet option.

Since I haven't had the opportunity to play with one, here's a good and thorough review by Engadget.

The uDraw may not be the most powerful artistic creation on the planet, but in the right hands it can be a lot of fun. Really, though, those hands need to be right-dominant and attached to a youthful (or youthful-minded) individual for it to be worth the purchase. If you have a young relative who is showing signs of creativity but who you don't trust running around the house with art supplies, or one who can't be bothered to pay any attention to anything without a game controller involved, this could be their perfect gateway drug onto some powerful artistic stuff, man. But, if you're a bit older, a bit more mature, have a computer, you should skip this and go straight for something a little more serious -- a similarly priced Wacom Bamboo would probably do you nicely.

My friend I-Wei Huang, who makes steam powered remote-controlled vehicles, and also designed all the characters in Sklylanders, reviewed the Wacom Inkling, a drawing pen that digitizes your sketches. He likes it, but has some problems with it.

Wacom Cintiq Rated 8 Out of 10 on Wired

If you think I might be biased about Wacom Cintiq 21UX, then check out Wired.com's professional opinion.

As an artist, I’ve always wanted some sort of one-to-one input when working in Photoshop or zBrush. I’ve used several of the traditional input tablets, but I’ve never been fully satisfied. I still ended up drawing on paper and scanning the results. It’s just more natural.

Input tablets have been constantly improving in the decades they’ve been around. But the technology remains imperfect. The pressure-sensitive pad sits on the desk, separate from the screen, which takes away some of that natural feel you get from drawing with a pen, especially when trying to add tiny details to your work.

So I jumped at the chance to test the Cintiq, a tablet that tries to do away with that annoying physical disconnect by allowing you to draw directly on the surface of an LCD screen.

Wacom vs. Tablet PC

Comparison between Wacom tablets and PC tablets

You may have seen the HP EliteBook PC Tablet on the hit T.V. show Project Runway. I admit that I watch the show and have been wondering if it is a better use the HP or a Wacom tablet. I've chosen to use the HP EliteBook as an example for most PC tablets. I am comparing it to the Wacom Cintiq 21UX and Cintiq 12WX because they both allow you to draw directly on the screen like the HP EliteBook... Read More here
