Wacom is July 18, 21.The 5 -inch LCD tablet "Wacom CintiQ 22" (hereinafter, CintiQ 22) has been announced.The feature of CINTIQ 22 is that it has a good cost performance of 118,800 yen (tax included), despite this large LCD tablet.I tried to touch it a little earlier.
LCD tablets that can be picked up by students and hobbies
Speaking of Wacom's LCD tablet, many professionals such as illustrators, manga artists, and animators are selected.There are only professionals, and it has a reputation for ease of use and high accuracy.However, the difficulty is that the price is reasonably high.Wacom also sells CintiQ 22 HD, a LCD display for professionals of the same size as the CintiQ 22 announced this time, but this is a price that is difficult to reach at 203,040 yen (tax included) at the Wacom store price.
On the other hand, Wacom has been on sale since January 2019..The entry model "Wacom CintiQ 16" (hereinafter, CintiQ 16) is an entry model that has a 6 -inch size of 80,000 yen or less.It has a full HD (1,920 x 1,080 dots) resolution, and is a full -fledged specification that supports the professional pen "Wacom Pro Pen 2".The price of Wacom Store was 73,224 yen (tax included), which was very easy to pick up, so it was accepted by Wacom fans.The CintiQ 22 announced this time is the same series as this Cintiq 16.
The major difference from for professionals is that there is no physical button such as the function button on the LCD tablet.It is not compatible with multi -touch functions and direct bonding methods that reduce the parallax.However, the specifications that are important for the expression of the picture, such as the maximum number of colors, the viewing angle, and the contrast ratio, are comparable to professionals.Wacom says, "I want users who may become professionals in the future to use a proper one."
The outline of the specs is that the screen size is 21.Type 5, full HD with 1,920 x 1,080 dots with a resolution of LCD panels, 178 ° in horizontal vertical angle, 210 cd/square meter, contrast ratio (standard value), 1,000: 1, response speed (standard).The value) is 22ms, the color gamut (standard value) is SRGB cover rate of 96 %, and the NTSC cover rate is 72 %.

The stress of drawing just because the screen is large is greatly reduced!
I participated in the CintiQ 16 presentation released in January 2019 and was impressed by the comfort of the drawing.However, when I experienced CINTIQ 22 this time, I was convinced that even if it was 50,000 yen, if there was space on the desk, it would be here to buy it!
There are two reasons.The biggest is the merit of the size of the size of the LCD tablet.15.With type 6 CintiQ 16, high -resolution illustrations and the like tend to expand the parts they want to draw, do detailed work, then reduce the work of checking the whole.On the other hand, CintiQ 22 has a slightly smaller screen display size than the manga manuscript paper.There is an advantage that it is easy to draw a picture without a scaling.The resolution of CintiQ 22 is the same full HD as CintiQ 16, but I personally did not feel that the resolution was not enough.
Another attraction of Cintiq 22 is that the stand sold separately in Cintiq 16 is included as standard.As for the dedicated stand, you can adjust the Cintiq 22 to 16 to 82 degrees in stairs.Moreover, you can change the angle even when sitting.When drawing a picture, it is a very useful function for those who want to change the screen angle frequently, such as wanting to set the screen to the screen, but wants to use the screen and use the web browsing.

However, I felt that CintiQ 16 was easier to use.In the interface of the input / output cable, CintiQ 16 adopted a triple -branch cable that can connect a power supply, USB, and HDMI with one bottle, but in Cintiq 22, it is a format in which USB, HDMI, and power cable are connected one by one.became.
Prouilla strator using Cintiq 16
At the media experience session, there was also a guest talk by Mr. Ohagi, a professional illustrator that uses the series Cintiq 16.
Ohagi is a genuine Wacom user who has been using Wacom tablets since elementary school.However, because the liquid crystal tablet is expensive, it is said that he used a plate tablet until this year.It seems that CintiQ 16, a relatively low price, was released in January, and it seems that CintiQ 16 was introduced, saying, "You can buy this price!"
Until now, I was satisfied with the board tablet, but when I actually introduced the LCD tablet, I was impressed that "I will paint without any discomfort!""I've been not good at drawing line drawings, but after the introduction of the LCD tablet, I became able to draw as I thought, so I lost my weakness."He says that the time has been shortened.
Also, when asked about the comfort of CintiQ 22 in the talk, he was impressed by the size of the screen.In the middle of drawing, the scaling movements have decreased, and in CintiQ 16, the position of the elbow that was in trouble with the place was stable.What I like in common in Cintiq 16 and CintiQ 22 is the texture of the liquid crystal surface.It is said that the drawing comfort with a little rough resistance is close to the feeling of drawing on paper.
Mr. Ohagi is a professional illustrator, but he is fully satisfied with the entry series CintiQ model.It is a product that is quite easy to introduce for those who have felt that Wacom's liquid crystal tablet has a high hurdle in terms of price, such as professionals, as well as doujin writers and hobbies.
In addition, if you purchase "Wacom CintiQ 22" at the Wacom Store by August 16, 2019, you will receive a two -finger glove for the Wacom supervised pen tablet.
