Most of the creative types in the audience will swear by their Wacom tablets, but that doesn’t mean you have to pay full price to get one. In fact, the full range of Intuos5 Touch Pen Tablets is now on sale for $100 off each. This includes the small, medium, and large variations.

All three versions of the Wacom Intuos5 touch pen tablets come bundled with Corel Painter 12, so you can start getting creative right out of the box. The multi-touch surface makes it easy to pan, zoom and navigate and, as can be expected with Wacom, you get a surface that is sensitive to different levels of pen pressure. Indeed, it supports 2048 levels of pressure for even more precise control. The ExpressKeys can be user-defined for shortcuts too.

Further aiding in the navigation is the finger-sensitive Touch Ring. This gives you intuitive control of brush size, scrolling and other functions. The interface shouldn’t get in the way of your creativity; it should accentuate and complement it. The Intuos5 Grip Pen also comes along with ten replacement nibs, including a flexi nib, stroke nib, and three hard felt nibs.

The small, medium, and large versions of the Wacom Intuos5 touch pen tablet come with pen active areas of 3.9 x 6.2 inches, 5.5 x 8.8 inches, and 8.0 x 12.8 inches, respectively. Find them on the Amazon page for $100 off, getting you down to $229, $349 and $469 for the three sizes. And yes, that includes free shipping too.

This newest version is very much like the regular 24HD that came before it, but now Wacom has added gesture control and multi-touch features to the mix for the 24HD Touch. They’re also promising an improved 24-inch display with 1.07 billion colors, covering 97% of Adobe’s RGB gamut. There’s also RGB backlighting for even better color rendition.

“Increasingly, as creative software incorporates multi-touch interaction and gesture support, the Cintiq 24HD touch provides a natural input experience for all related activities including concept sketching, illustration and especially 3D activities such as sculpting, modeling and animation,” says Professional Products Brand Director Don Varga. “The ability to manipulate a 3D model or pan, zoom and rotate an image with one hand while simultaneously sculpting or sketching with the other delivers a completely natural experience enabling artists to stay completely in their creative zone.”

Be expected to pay a pretty penny for all of this though. The Wacom Cintiq 24HD Touch will retail for $3699 when it ships this August, a full $1100 more than its predecessor.
