Features & Benefits

Easy to use. It's easy to use a pen tablet because every point on the tablet has a matching point on the screen. When you move your pen over the tablet, the cursor moves in precisely the same way on the screen. Where you touch your pen tip to the tablet is where you click.

Pressure sensitivity. With 1,024 levels of pressure sensitivity, you can control your software tools by changing how hard you press the pen tip on the tablet. Using pressure sensitivity, you can dynamically control things like exposure, brush size, opacity, and more.

Intuos3 Pen Tablet. The sloping, contoured palm rest provides comfort while you work. Adjust your cord position vertically or horizontally for greater workspace flexibility. The eight-foot cable allows you to kick back while you work.

ExpressKeys Strategically placed programmable ExpressKeys are "chordable" and can be used for mouse clicks, modifier keys, open/run applications, pop-up menus, and keyboard shortcuts.
