You can turn "Finger touch" off. I keep it off 99% of the time.

another thing is battery life 3.5 hrs just isnt good enough min 7-8hrs and you can t swap batteries out on the ep121

@MrRdt1970

Yeah the battery life doesn't bother me too much because after three hours sitting somewhere I'm ready to get up and move and can generally find a plug if I need too, like at a coffee shop or bookstore.

@bdemare00 Damn right, my YouTube friend.

@NovaN0va thx, the difference between ipad and a real pro stuff huh !

@spicejustin You can disable it. but, from what I saw, it's disabled automatically when the Wacom Digitizer comes close to the screen anyways. And re-enabled when it's further away.

@bdemare00 It seems that finger-touch is automatically disabled when the stylus tip is within range of the screen, and re-enabled when the screen no longer detects the stylus tip.

[bdemare00]

Do you know if the screen still detects your hand when the stylus approaches the screen?

If yes it will make conflicts between your hand and pen when you draw

the cintiq12wx is purely made for drawing with its sensitivity and points per inch. those are different things but i ratcher want a cintiq12wx without connection to draw aswell

Thank you so much for this video. I was looking for an artist's perspective on it, not a PC reviewer, who would just complain it was underpowered and overpriced (ignoring the fact a Cintiq 12WX is $999 new and requires a computer for use). I have been hoping to purchase an EP121 to help me art away from my desk, as I can't sit here very long due to back pain.
