Computer Mouse for Production
Looking to get a mouse for my studio setup more for production looking at:
Apple Magic Mouse
-or-
Kensington Expert Mouse
anyone have any feedback, recommendations, etc on the mouses listed or what you use
For my tower I still have my Logitech G5 from my first person shooter days. I’ve yet to encounter another mouse that comes close, but it has been a few years.
A Logitech Trackman Wheel could work, you don’t even need to move it, just put it anywhere: on top of a keyboard or your lap or wherever you want it to be.
I had one but my father broke it after two years of use. Haven’t found another one since that happened.
If you are able to find one of these babies… They are worth more than their weight in gold.
(grumbles about ergonomic mice being anti-leftie)
Muh G9 from logitech bish! though there’s the G9x which just has a different chip for higher dpi lol
I mean, a mouse can vary. Do you want wired/wireless? Style?
Some of you guys really like trackballs eh? I’ve never really given one a shot, hmm…
I have a magic mouse, wish I bought the magic trackpad instead.
Love my trackball!!! I was getting elbow and wrist fatigue bad when I played poker online for 4-5years. I’m sure I was headed for carple tunnel. Got a trackball and never looked back.
Not the fanciest or most expensive, but works. I have one that is around 6 years old, and it’s still going strong.
Yeah…track balls are just plain better. I also want to get one of these (
) at some point, because it’ll probably be a while before I can afford a control surface with a wheel. But I’m seriously considering whether or not the Magic Trackpad will work about as well…depends on whether I can get gestures to work correctly.
I’m thinking it’s not worth the effort, though.
I’m left-handed. I use track pads with my left hand because they’re in the middle of laptops, but I’ve never even thought about touching a mouse or track pad with my left hand.
I think the problem is on your end. No one else cares.
(sorry if that came off as catty…it’s just that when people complain about shit that doesn’t matter, it makes the view point less relevant in other people’s eyes…it’s more important that someone releases a left-handed chainsaw than a left-handed ergo mouse)
They are fantastic to use once you get used to them. But my choice is the one with the ball at the thumb.
I have both and know what you mean, it’s worth buying the other to have the choice.
