when retouching
your images.
With Intuos5 you can apply the best effect immediately
when removing a blemish on an image.
You won’t need to go by trial and error to find the right
size or pressure.
The high-precision pressure sensitivity of the Intuos
Grip Pen helps you to apply the effect of the tool at
the position and the strength you want.

when working on your
images for longer
periods.
The Intuos Grip Pen is optimised for perfect ergonomics:
during longer sessions, it puts your hand in a more natural
position than a mouse or a trackpad.
The new soft-touch surface of the tablet is a real relief
after hours of work, while its matte black finish reduces
annoying reflections. Its ergonomic wrist rest even makes
longer sessions enjoyable – no matter whether you’re
left or right handed.

pencil, a brush, a felt-tip or a coloured pencil.
The Intuos Grip Pen rests in your hand just like a traditional
analogue pen: natural and smooth. Working with it is much
more relaxed compared to a conventional mouse.
Moreover, you can carry a whole palette of your favourite
