Features
Powerful, Yet Sensitive
Featuring the new Wacom Tip Sensor, you'll now realize precision and control beginning with only a single gram of pen pressure. With every stroke, Intuos4 captures even the most subtle nuances of pressure, giving you the creative power to dynamically adjust exposure, brush size, line weight, opacity and more by pressing harder or softer with the new Grip Pen.
Working Under Pressure
With 2048 levels of pen pressure sensitivity, Intuos4 gives you the creative power to dynamically adjust exposure, brush size, line weight, opacity and more.
The Keys To Success
Work smarter not harder. Set-up the Intuos4 ExpressKeys to activate your own unique, time-saving shortcuts and modifiers in each of your applications. With Intuos4, remembering your shortcut settings is now as easy as casting a quick glance at the tablet. Each ExpressKey is now equipped with an accompanying illuminated display providing a constant reminder of the key's application-specific function.
Speed Ring
The finger-sensitive Touch Ring allows you to control up to four different functions in each application for on-the-fly adjustments such as zooming, scrolling, brush size, canvas rotation, and more.
Left, Right, Left
The innovative, ambidextrous design of Intuos4 allows you to maximize the productivity of both your hands. By placing all of the ExpressKeys and the Touch Ring on the same side of the tablet, they are in the perfect position for use with the hand that is not holding the pen. Simply rotate the tablet 180° degrees, and change a single control panel setting, to adjust the tablet from a right-handed to a left-handed configuration.
Extra Comfort
Intuos4 is the most comfortable Intuos tablet yet. The slim-profiled tablet has gently sloping palm rests that provide complete support for working on all areas of the tablet. The cordless, battery-free pen features a cushioned, ergonomically contoured barrel and a selection of interchangeable nibs.
Peek Inside
A new weighted pen stand not only provides a convenient pen holder, but also functions as a handy twist-off storage compartment for pen nibs and handy nib removal tool. Standard, felt, stroke and flex nibs ship with the Intuos4, allowing you to simulate working with a variety of traditional art and design materials.
Software, No Less
Intuos4 owners are entitled to download their choice of software titles from industry leaders such as Adobe, Autodesk and Corel.
Mouse Included
There is even room for a mouse on this professional pen tablet. Completely redesigned, the new five-button mouse moves the cursor based on both the direction and orientation of the mouse, for smooth, accurate tracking across the tablet surface.

This was my first tablet and now I wonder why I waited so long to get one. First rate, speeds up my processing of photo's and the variable pressure of the pen works great. Buy one you won't be disapointed.

they lives up to its name this pen is great, the only downfall is that the nibs they do wear down pretty fast, I do alot of graphic design and game development and it was the first thing I noticed, but i actually find it pretty fun to go
excellent product - 64-bit driver issues

The tablet works beautifully and does everything well, but I have had some issues installing it on a 64-bit Win7 system along with Photoshop, Lightroom, and CS4. Wacom tech support supplied me with an updated driver which helped, but there are still occasional problems. Wacom needs to develop a new driver for full, seamless integration with 64-bit Photoshop and other CS4 applications.
Love it
