Just saw that they are launching two new models. Still crazy expensive, but at least they are upgrading them.

I've been looking at maybe getting a 12wx, not sure though. Might just settle for a intous 5, my bamboo fun small from 2007 kills my hand.
A year ago I picked up the new version of the 21ux large cintiq - wish i had known an "HD" version was going to drop. At first it was weird painting digitally with my hand in the way but now I absolutely love it. $3699 is just crazy though for those new ones.
ReplyDeleteYeah you've got to take care of your most important equipment:your hands! I know those are going to be outside of my price range for a while at least...I bet those screens will be just gorgeous though.
ReplyDeleteI need to get a larger monitor so that I'm not stuck using my laptop screen which isn't exactly consistent with the rest of the world in all cases.
Anyone have recommendations for monitor brands? Talking to the guys at MK12 I learned that they had done research and found that the same manufacturer makes both Dell and Apple monitors and that you just pay twice as much for that sexy brushed aluminum. So with that knowledge I'm thinking about going for a nice 24" dell if I can.
Thanks for letting us know!
