Wacom has launched the Cintiq 13HD – a 13in interactive pen display that’s aimed at creative professionals working in areas such as design, art, photography and image editing.

Combining a wide-format HD LED display with a slim and compact design, the Cintiq 13HD features an adjustable stand and an improved pen for creating directly on the screen surface. Offering a wide viewing angle of 178° and a resolution of 1920×1080 pixels, the Cintiq 13HD’s stand is optimised for use in a choice of four settings – flat, 22°, 35° and 50°. Adding to this, the stand is fully detatchable too.

The Wacom Cintiq 13HD’s display can be tilted to four settings.

The improved cordless and battery-free Pro Pen is designed to offer advanced pen performance, superior comfort, combined with precision and fine control. Boasting 2,048 levels of pressure and tilt sensitivity, much like the Wacom Intuos 5, the Cintiq comes with a convenient case to store the Pro Pen and spare Pen nibs.

The Wacom Cintiq 13HD’s pen features 2,048 levels of pressure and tilt sensitivity.

To further improve workflow and productivity, frequently used shortcut commands are available at the user’s fingertips through four customisable and application-specific ExpressKeys and Rocker Ring. Making use of these shortcuts offers valuable time saving benefits by minimising keyboard dependency.

Available from April at Wacom’s eStore and other selected retailers, the Wacom Cintiq 13HD will cost £749.
