hello and welcome to this episode of
0:00:08.580,0:00:12.420
Gainey's tips today I'll be showing you

what the best keyboard and mouse is for
0:00:12.420,0:00:16.680
photoshop or other productivity and
0:00:14.460,0:00:18.270
creative work people tend to use the
0:00:16.680,0:00:20.010
free keyboard and most leather computer
0:00:18.270,0:00:22.619
came with but those are usually not the
0:00:20.010,0:00:24.300
best for a software like Photoshop where
0:00:22.619,0:00:26.279
you need precise most movement a
0:00:24.300,0:00:27.930
high-quality most is a must-have
0:00:26.279,0:00:30.900
especially if you're working on a high
0:00:27.930,0:00:32.969
res display more on that later photoshop
0:00:30.900,0:00:34.620
also has a lot of tools and commands so
0:00:32.969,0:00:36.570
a keyboard with extra macro keys will
0:00:34.620,0:00:38.790
improve your work for significantly in
0:00:36.570,0:00:40.559
this video you'll learn how to pick the
0:00:38.790,0:00:43.950
best keyboard and mouse to improve your

productivity now just be clear this
0:00:43.950,0:00:46.770
video isn't about buying peripherals
0:00:45.600,0:00:48.930
that will make you look like a
0:00:46.770,0:00:50.789
professional the stuff and we recommend
0:00:48.930,0:00:53.100
to you is based on how practical they
0:00:50.789,0:00:54.750
are not how professional they look most
0:00:53.100,0:00:56.399
of the products are designed for gamers
0:00:54.750,0:00:57.930
but don't be fooled into thinking like
0:00:56.399,0:01:00.539
gaming products aren't good enough for
0:00:57.930,0:01:02.039
professional work manufactures market
0:01:00.539,0:01:03.239
your products for gamers simply because
0:01:02.039,0:01:05.820
there are way more gamers than
0:01:03.239,0:01:07.409
photographers and digital artists gaming
0:01:05.820,0:01:08.909
keyboards and mouse are something best
0:01:07.409,0:01:11.159
performing and well blow products you
0:01:08.909,0:01:12.840
can buy and they make using Photoshop so
0:01:11.159,0:01:14.520
much better so don't worry if the
0:01:12.840,0:01:18.960
products make you look like a gamer it's
0:01:14.520,0:01:20.430
all about being more productive let's
0:01:18.960,0:01:22.530
start off by talking about your keyboard
0:01:20.430,0:01:24.930
a good keyboard is a 100-percent
0:01:22.530,0:01:26.520
necessary for photoshop most of the
0:01:24.930,0:01:28.470
features are for your own comfort and
0:01:26.520,0:01:30.210
personal preference but there are some
0:01:28.470,0:01:33.540
practical features that make them a good
0:01:30.210,0:01:35.340
investment one of the biggest features
0:01:33.540,0:01:37.409
that might make you more money or macro
0:01:35.340,0:01:38.790
keys these are extra keys on your
0:01:37.409,0:01:41.340
keyboard that you can program to any
0:01:38.790,0:01:44.640
hotkey keystroke combinations and more
0:01:41.340,0:01:46.380
it's incredibly useful your productivity
0:01:44.640,0:01:48.659
will improve so much once you start
0:01:46.380,0:01:50.640
using it if you want to add a hotkey in
0:01:48.659,0:01:53.040
Photoshop you can do it by going to edit
0:01:50.640,0:01:54.570
keyboard shortcuts but you're going to
0:01:53.040,0:01:56.850
have a tough time finding a hockey
0:01:54.570,0:01:59.729
that's not already taken a better
0:01:56.850,0:02:01.619
solution is to use macros for example i
0:01:59.729,0:02:04.439
have a macro for converting a layer to a
0:02:01.619,0:02:07.360
smart object what does macro does is a
0:02:04.439,0:02:09.789
process the combinations all L as
0:02:07.360,0:02:12.670
s which basically loads a command from
0:02:09.789,0:02:15.160
the menu on max is more complicated but
0:02:12.670,0:02:16.960
still possible I don't use max anymore
0:02:15.160,0:02:18.760
but from what I remember you had to
0:02:16.960,0:02:20.290
press something like command f2 and then
0:02:18.760,0:02:22.630
use the arrow keys on keyboard to
0:02:20.290,0:02:24.730
navigate around new menus it sounds like
0:02:22.630,0:02:26.410
a lot of keystrokes but you can record
0:02:24.730,0:02:28.030
your macros with no delays and I'll
0:02:26.410,0:02:31.150
place so fast that it feels like you're
0:02:28.030,0:02:33.130
pressing a hotkey I use macros all the
0:02:31.150,0:02:34.540
time and have a set so that the macro
0:02:33.130,0:02:36.910
keys will change depending on which
0:02:34.540,0:02:39.070
software i'm currently using time is
0:02:36.910,0:02:41.380
money if you're not using macros yet I
0:02:39.070,0:02:43.360
highly recommend you try it out once
0:02:41.380,0:02:44.920
again get a habit of using it and you
0:02:43.360,0:02:48.100
build your own profiles you'll get
0:02:44.920,0:02:49.600
things done so much faster once you
0:02:48.100,0:02:51.580
start using macros you're going to run
0:02:49.600,0:02:53.290
into another problem when you have so
0:02:51.580,0:02:55.870
many macro set it's hard to remember
0:02:53.290,0:02:58.180
which one does what and this is what RGB
0:02:55.870,0:02:59.770
lighting comes in look for keyboards
0:02:58.180,0:03:02.410
that let you set the colors for every
0:02:59.770,0:03:04.630
individual key like the corsair k90 5
0:03:02.410,0:03:06.820
keyboard some keyboards will say that
0:03:04.630,0:03:08.230
they have RGB lighting but they only let
0:03:06.820,0:03:10.510
you have one color for your entire
0:03:08.230,0:03:12.280
keyboard or for a couple stones in your
0:03:10.510,0:03:14.230
keyboard and not the individual keys
0:03:12.280,0:03:18.519
make sure that the keyboard you're
0:03:14.230,0:03:21.010
buying has perky RGB lighting i'm
0:03:18.519,0:03:23.560
currently using a coarser k95 keyboard
0:03:21.010,0:03:25.720
it has 18 macro keys and I use all of it
0:03:23.560,0:03:28.510
in fact it's not enough for me so I have
0:03:25.720,0:03:30.670
a second macro pad the Logitech g13 I
0:03:28.510,0:03:32.530
recommend us if you need more macro keys
0:03:30.670,0:03:34.590
or if you're using a laptop and don't
0:03:32.530,0:03:37.030
want to carry around a gigantic keyboard
0:03:34.590,0:03:38.950
there are other options like this crazy
0:03:37.030,0:03:40.930
cherry keyboard with more keys than you
0:03:38.950,0:03:42.370
ever need but I don't recommend this
0:03:40.930,0:03:44.440
because the software is quite outdated
0:03:42.370,0:03:46.780
and it's not as flexible as the other
0:03:44.440,0:03:48.640
software from other manufacturers so
0:03:46.780,0:03:52.420
which keyboard do I recommend here are
0:03:48.640,0:03:54.670
my top five recommendations the razer
0:03:52.420,0:03:56.799
orbweaver is a macro pad with 20 keys in
0:03:54.670,0:03:59.950
the main area and additional keys around
0:03:56.799,0:04:02.080
it it has perky RGB lighting great build
0:03:59.950,0:04:03.910
quality and software that lets you set
0:04:02.080,0:04:06.310
customizable macros with unlimited
0:04:03.910,0:04:08.350
profiles I recommend this if you are
0:04:06.310,0:04:09.750
using a laptop or if you need a lot
0:04:08.350,0:04:12.420
macro keys
0:04:09.750,0:04:15.480
if you don't need too perky RGB lighting
0:04:12.420,0:04:17.130
the Logitech g13 is a better choice its
0:04:15.480,0:04:19.829
price laura and has some of its own
0:04:17.130,0:04:22.200
unique benefits it gives you 22 macro
0:04:19.829,0:04:24.810
keys three dedicated profile switching
0:04:22.200,0:04:27.180
buttons and a dedicated on-the-fly macro
0:04:24.810,0:04:29.130
recording button it doesn't have perky
0:04:27.180,0:04:31.440
RGB lighting like the eraser or reverb
0:04:29.130,0:04:33.180
chroma but it does have a LCD which is
0:04:31.440,0:04:36.180
useful for displaying your CPU and RAM
0:04:33.180,0:04:38.790
usage if you use a lot of photoshop
0:04:36.180,0:04:40.430
actions the steelseries apex to 350 is a
0:04:38.790,0:04:43.470
great keyboard that's not too expensive
0:04:40.430,0:04:45.390
has plenty of macro keys but what I like
0:04:43.470,0:04:48.270
most about it rd macro keys above the
0:04:45.390,0:04:50.669
f12 12 buttons they're great for mapping
0:04:48.270,0:04:52.140
your favorite photoshop actions the cons
0:04:50.669,0:04:53.820
for this keyboard is that the keys
0:04:52.140,0:04:55.980
aren't mechanical and you can only set
0:04:53.820,0:04:59.700
the colors based on a couple zones not
0:04:55.980,0:05:01.260
the individual keys the logitech g9 10
0:04:59.700,0:05:04.020
is a great mechanical keyboard with
0:05:01.260,0:05:05.669
perky RGB lighting it has nine macro
0:05:04.020,0:05:07.440
keys which isn't many but they're
0:05:05.669,0:05:08.940
located on the left and top side which
0:05:07.440,0:05:11.490
is useful if you like to have two sets
0:05:08.940,0:05:13.140
of macro keys for example on the top
0:05:11.490,0:05:14.940
macro keys you can use that to store
0:05:13.140,0:05:17.310
your favorite photoshop actions and
0:05:14.940,0:05:19.080
besides you can use that for a common
0:05:17.310,0:05:23.250
photoshop commands like rearranging your
0:05:19.080,0:05:24.990
layers my top recommendation is also the
0:05:23.250,0:05:28.290
keyboard that i'm currently using the
0:05:24.990,0:05:30.990
corsair k90 5 RGB has a whopping 18
0:05:28.290,0:05:33.360
macro keys a dedicated on-the-fly macro
0:05:30.990,0:05:36.120
recording button three dedicated profile
0:05:33.360,0:05:38.700
switching buttons and perky RGB lighting
0:05:36.120,0:05:40.650
it also has a best build quality I've
0:05:38.700,0:05:43.380
ever seen in a keyboard and the software
0:05:40.650,0:05:44.880
is very very customizable anything you
0:05:43.380,0:05:47.040
can think of you can probably do any
0:05:44.880,0:05:48.900
corsair software it's not as user
0:05:47.040,0:05:50.850
friendly as other software like logitech
0:05:48.900,0:05:52.530
but if you can use photoshop then you'll
0:05:50.850,0:05:54.900
have no problems learning how to use the
0:05:52.530,0:05:56.820
coarser software the only downside is
0:05:54.900,0:05:58.770
that once in a while the macros will
0:05:56.820,0:06:00.600
just stop working but once you open
0:05:58.770,0:06:03.540
décor server software it'll fix itself
0:06:00.600,0:06:05.430
immediately as I so many software issues
0:06:03.540,0:06:06.300
this is the best keyboard you can get
0:06:05.430,0:06:07.649
for photoshop
0:06:06.300,0:06:09.699
[Music]
0:06:07.649,0:06:12.520
now let's talk about something more
0:06:09.699,0:06:14.529
important your mouse I see people doing
0:06:12.520,0:06:16.479
professional work that requires precise
0:06:14.529,0:06:18.459
movements and they're using a cheap most
0:06:16.479,0:06:21.009
usually the free most that comes with a
0:06:18.459,0:06:22.389
computer a good most makes a huge
0:06:21.009,0:06:26.529
difference especially if you're working
0:06:22.389,0:06:27.759
on a high res display have you ever
0:06:26.529,0:06:30.039
switched from neumos and found that
0:06:27.759,0:06:31.779
you're not used to it you can tweak the
0:06:30.039,0:06:34.149
DPI settings are you want but it never
0:06:31.779,0:06:36.669
feels like your old mouse it's probably
0:06:34.149,0:06:39.279
because of the sensor position on this
0:06:36.669,0:06:41.050
g700 most the sensor is located near the
0:06:39.279,0:06:43.209
front of the most while on this course
0:06:41.050,0:06:45.069
or similar MOS is located at the center
0:06:43.209,0:06:46.889
look at the bottom of your mouth and
0:06:45.069,0:06:48.969
notice where the sensor is positioned I
0:06:46.889,0:06:50.379
realized that this sensor precision
0:06:48.969,0:06:53.709
changes the way that I hold the most
0:06:50.379,0:06:54.819
Omri g700s my palm would be resting on
0:06:53.709,0:06:57.219
your mouth which makes it very
0:06:54.819,0:06:58.749
comfortable to use well on my cursor
0:06:57.219,0:07:00.729
most I tend to hold it like a claw
0:06:58.749,0:07:02.349
because I'm used to holding my mouth so
0:07:00.729,0:07:04.449
that your fingers are precision nearly
0:07:02.349,0:07:06.639
sensor if you want something that feels
0:07:04.449,0:07:08.379
like your old mouse try to find a most
0:07:06.639,0:07:11.830
worthy sense of position is roughly the
0:07:08.379,0:07:13.779
same as your old one the main reason for
0:07:11.830,0:07:16.930
getting a gaming mouse is the adjustable
0:07:13.779,0:07:18.819
DPI setting and improve polling rate DPI
0:07:16.930,0:07:20.529
stands for dots per inch and it's
0:07:18.819,0:07:23.050
basically a measurement of how sensitive
0:07:20.529,0:07:24.729
your Moses a higher DPI setting will
0:07:23.050,0:07:27.430
move your cursors more pixels per inch
0:07:24.729,0:07:29.319
the quick gist is that all gaming most
0:07:27.430,0:07:32.199
have more divided than you need even on
0:07:29.319,0:07:34.180
a 4k display normal non-gaming most
0:07:32.199,0:07:36.909
however will typically have a fixed deep
0:07:34.180,0:07:38.979
I between 800 and 1200 which is
0:07:36.909,0:07:40.719
sufficient for low res display but if
0:07:38.979,0:07:42.309
you have a 4k display you should really
0:07:40.719,0:07:45.909
be getting a gaming mouse with at least
0:07:42.309,0:07:48.249
2,000 DPI anything over 6,000 deep is
0:07:45.909,0:07:50.469
excessive there's no harm in getting a
0:07:48.249,0:07:51.369
most with a very high DPI setting but
0:07:50.469,0:07:53.110
just make sure that you're not
0:07:51.369,0:07:54.910
specifically spending money for that
0:07:53.110,0:07:57.970
extra feature
0:07:54.910,0:08:00.280
on my 40 inch 4k monitor I have my most
0:07:57.970,0:08:01.900
such a 2000 deep I which will move it
0:08:00.280,0:08:04.240
roughly halfway across the screen for
0:08:01.900,0:08:06.310
every one inch of movement if you're
0:08:04.240,0:08:07.810
used to using a low DPI it will take
0:08:06.310,0:08:09.730
some time to adapt your higher DPI
0:08:07.810,0:08:11.370
settings and this is where the d5
0:08:09.730,0:08:13.630
buttons on your mouse will come in handy
0:08:11.370,0:08:15.970
most gaming mouse will have buttons for
0:08:13.630,0:08:17.410
you to increase or decrease the DPI so
0:08:15.970,0:08:19.270
if you need more precision you can
0:08:17.410,0:08:21.490
simply press the button to lower GDP I
0:08:19.270,0:08:23.110
and make your most lower if you want
0:08:21.490,0:08:25.750
your most move faster you can press a
0:08:23.110,0:08:28.660
button to increase the DPI it's a very
0:08:25.750,0:08:30.240
handy feature finally polling rate is
0:08:28.660,0:08:32.349
the other reason to buy gaming mouse
0:08:30.240,0:08:34.390
polling rate is a measurement of how
0:08:32.349,0:08:36.340
often your most reports this position to
0:08:34.390,0:08:38.110
your computer a higher polling rate
0:08:36.340,0:08:40.090
means that your most is more responsive
0:08:38.110,0:08:42.880
normal non-gaming most will have a
0:08:40.090,0:08:44.490
polling rate of 125 hertz which means it
0:08:42.880,0:08:46.990
reports its position to your computer
0:08:44.490,0:08:49.420
125 times the second or every 8
0:08:46.990,0:08:51.940
milliseconds gaming most will typically
0:08:49.420,0:08:55.810
have higher polling rates such as 250
0:08:51.940,0:08:57.250
Hertz 500 Hertz and 1000 Hertz you will
0:08:55.810,0:08:59.470
notice the difference going from a non
0:08:57.250,0:09:02.740
gaming mouse with a polling rate of 125
0:08:59.470,0:09:04.840
hertz to a gaming most of 500 Hertz the
0:09:02.740,0:09:08.380
difference between 500 and 1,000 Hertz
0:09:04.840,0:09:09.850
however is not very noticeable just like
0:09:08.380,0:09:11.620
how we can buy a keyboard with macro
0:09:09.850,0:09:13.630
buttons you can buy a most of macro
0:09:11.620,0:09:16.120
buttons too it's a great way to improve
0:09:13.630,0:09:17.470
your productivity the benefit to macro
0:09:16.120,0:09:18.850
buttons on your most compared to a
0:09:17.470,0:09:21.040
keyboard is that you don't need to let
0:09:18.850,0:09:23.590
go of your mouth so often I have my
0:09:21.040,0:09:26.260
mouth set to switch tabs zoom in and out
0:09:23.590,0:09:29.050
close a document and scroll up and down
0:09:26.260,0:09:31.240
a panel in Photoshop for some reason to
0:09:29.050,0:09:33.730
page up down home and end keys don't
0:09:31.240,0:09:35.950
work in new panels using the scroll
0:09:33.730,0:09:37.720
wheel is very slow so what I did was I
0:09:35.950,0:09:43.240
mean a macro that lets me scroll faster
0:09:37.720,0:09:44.830
like this an even faster like this by
0:09:43.240,0:09:46.840
the way don't forget to use a mouse pad
0:09:44.830,0:09:48.730
I used to use the most on a bare surface
0:09:46.840,0:09:50.080
of my dad's but i've been using a most
0:09:48.730,0:09:52.300
high for a couple months now and it
0:09:50.080,0:09:54.160
makes a huge difference it's a lot
0:09:52.300,0:09:57.100
smoother and it also extends the life of
0:09:54.160,0:09:59.080
the most fee it's hard to get a gaming
0:09:57.100,0:10:00.760
mouse that isn't good any gaming mouse
0:09:59.080,0:10:02.800
will be a huge improvement over a non
0:10:00.760,0:10:05.440
gaming mouse but here are my top picks
0:10:02.800,0:10:07.510
the Corsair scimitar RGB is amosa i'm
0:10:05.440,0:10:09.820
currently using it's a wired mouse with
0:10:07.510,0:10:12.070
12 macro keys on site and too deep I
0:10:09.820,0:10:13.960
buttons on the top the position of the
0:10:12.070,0:10:16.330
side buttons can be adjusted and I have
0:10:13.960,0:10:17.980
mine set to very front it's a very
0:10:16.330,0:10:19.810
comfortable most and just like with the
0:10:17.980,0:10:22.210
corsair keyboard the build quality is
0:10:19.810,0:10:23.830
awesome the downside is that the scroll
0:10:22.210,0:10:26.980
wheel doesn't tilt so you can't scroll
0:10:23.830,0:10:29.080
horizontally if you like the courser
0:10:26.980,0:10:30.690
most but wish it was wireless the Razer
0:10:29.080,0:10:33.310
Naga epic chroma is a great alternative
0:10:30.690,0:10:35.050
the side buttons are fixed so you can
0:10:33.310,0:10:36.760
adjust the position of it but it does
0:10:35.050,0:10:38.830
have a toast for a wheel and it comes
0:10:36.760,0:10:41.260
with a charging base it's a great mouse
0:10:38.830,0:10:44.380
but is also quite pricey at 130 US
0:10:41.260,0:10:46.150
dollars the Logitech g600 is a wired
0:10:44.380,0:10:48.040
mouse and just like the previous two MOS
0:10:46.150,0:10:51.010
it has 12 macro buttons on the side and
0:10:48.040,0:10:52.690
two deep I buttons on the top but unlike
0:10:51.010,0:10:55.030
the two it has a third mouse button
0:10:52.690,0:10:56.560
which is very cool you can set the spine
0:10:55.030,0:10:58.480
inside if you hold on to it it will
0:10:56.560,0:11:00.700
lower the DPI and give you slower mouse
0:10:58.480,0:11:02.530
movements I personally haven't gotten
0:11:00.700,0:11:04.720
used to that and I find that using the
0:11:02.530,0:11:06.280
DPI abundance it's easier but if you can
0:11:04.720,0:11:07.780
get used to it or you have ways of
0:11:06.280,0:11:10.330
making use of the third mouse button
0:11:07.780,0:11:11.710
then this is a great choice the best
0:11:10.330,0:11:13.300
thing I like about this mouse is that
0:11:11.710,0:11:15.130
the side buttons have an angle to them
0:11:13.300,0:11:18.610
which makes it very easy to feel which
0:11:15.130,0:11:23.020
budding you're pressing coming in second
0:11:18.610,0:11:24.790
place is the logitech c910 it's super
0:11:23.020,0:11:27.100
lightweight as the most advanced optical
0:11:24.790,0:11:28.990
sensor the fastest response time for a
0:11:27.100,0:11:31.510
wireless mouse and it even has a built
0:11:28.990,0:11:34.089
in 32-bit ARM Cortex processor to power
0:11:31.510,0:11:35.440
all of this essentially is the best most
0:11:34.089,0:11:36.940
you can get but the reason why this
0:11:35.440,0:11:38.800
doesn't win the first place is because
0:11:36.940,0:11:41.440
it's overkill for photography work and
0:11:38.800,0:11:43.000
for 150 US dollars is not cheap I
0:11:41.440,0:11:44.680
recommend this most if you're
0:11:43.000,0:11:46.360
left-handed or if you just want the best
0:11:44.680,0:11:48.490
most that you can get and money is not a
0:11:46.360,0:11:49.470
concern however keep in mind that this
0:11:48.490,0:11:51.000
doesn't have as many
0:11:49.470,0:11:54.330
abundance as the previous three months
0:11:51.000,0:11:56.850
we mentioned the number one mouse is the
0:11:54.330,0:11:58.620
logitech g700s I've been using this
0:11:56.850,0:12:00.000
mouse for a long time and although it
0:11:58.620,0:12:02.280
doesn't have as many buttons as his
0:12:00.000,0:12:04.830
first three dimension it has in position
0:12:02.280,0:12:06.450
in better places one of the issues with
0:12:04.830,0:12:07.980
having so many buttons crammed onto his
0:12:06.450,0:12:10.200
side is that it's easy to press the
0:12:07.980,0:12:12.210
wrong one this mouse has four buttons on
0:12:10.200,0:12:15.210
the side three under left mouse button
0:12:12.210,0:12:16.560
and one in the center the other benefit
0:12:15.210,0:12:18.840
is that this is an incredibly
0:12:16.560,0:12:21.150
comfortable most i've used this most for
0:12:18.840,0:12:22.860
over five years and i love it the only
0:12:21.150,0:12:25.170
reason why switch away from this most is
0:12:22.860,0:12:27.660
for productivity reasons I simply needed
0:12:25.170,0:12:28.920
a mouse with war buttons the downside
0:12:27.660,0:12:30.690
with this most is that is not very
0:12:28.920,0:12:32.610
durable and went through three
0:12:30.690,0:12:34.170
replacements twice because the scroll
0:12:32.610,0:12:36.360
wheel broke and once because the left
0:12:34.170,0:12:38.100
mouse button broke however lodge text
0:12:36.360,0:12:40.170
customer support was awesome and he sent
0:12:38.100,0:12:41.760
me replacements for free and you can see
0:12:40.170,0:12:43.470
it online is already showing signs of
0:12:41.760,0:12:46.080
wear and tear it's still the most
0:12:43.470,0:12:48.150
comfortable mouse it's also wireless low
0:12:46.080,0:12:50.940
price and has a lot of buttons and
0:12:48.150,0:12:54.170
that's why the logitech g700s is the
0:12:50.940,0:12:54.170
best most for photoshop
0:13:00.959,0:13:04.749

Hello and welcome to this episode of
0:00:08.639,0:00:10.620
Denny's tips. Today I'll be showing you
0:00:10.620,0:00:12.389
what the best keyboard and mouse is for
0:00:12.389,0:00:14.429
Photoshop or other productivity and
0:00:14.429,0:00:16.650
creative work. People tend to use the
0:00:16.650,0:00:18.060
free keyboard and mouse that their computer
0:00:18.060,0:00:19.980
came with, but those are usually not the
0:00:19.980,0:00:22.590
best. For a software like Photoshop where
0:00:22.590,0:00:24.570
you need precise most movements, a
0:00:24.570,0:00:26.310
high-quality mouse is a must-have,
0:00:26.310,0:00:27.930
especially if you're working on a high
0:00:27.930,0:00:30.029
res display. More on that later.
0:00:30.029,0:00:32.160
Photoshop also has a lot of tools and
0:00:32.160,0:00:34.200
commands, so a keyboard with extra macro
0:00:34.200,0:00:35.370
keys will improve your workflow
0:00:35.370,0:00:38.250
significantly. In this video you'll learn
0:00:38.250,0:00:39.719
how to pick the best keyboard and mouse
0:00:39.719,0:00:43.500
to improve your productivity. Now just to be
0:00:43.500,0:00:45.059
clear, this video isn't about buying
0:00:45.059,0:00:46.680
peripherals that will make you look like
0:00:46.680,0:00:48.660
a professional. The stuff I'm going to
0:00:48.660,0:00:50.039
recommend to you is based on how
0:00:50.039,0:00:51.930
practical they are, not how professional
0:00:51.930,0:00:53.910
they look. Most of the products are
0:00:53.910,0:00:55.590
designed for gamers but don't be fooled
0:00:55.590,0:00:57.059
into thinking that gaming products
0:00:57.059,0:00:58.680
aren't good enough for professional work.
0:00:58.680,0:01:01.079
Manufacturers market your products for
0:01:01.079,0:01:02.969
gamers simply because there are way more gamers
0:01:02.969,0:01:04.860
than photographers and digital artists.
0:01:04.860,0:01:07.049
Gaming keyboards and mouse are some of the
0:01:07.049,0:01:08.820
best-performing and well built products that
0:01:08.820,0:01:10.380
you can buy and they make using
0:01:10.380,0:01:12.510
Photoshop so much better. So don't worry
0:01:12.510,0:01:13.950
if the products make you look like a
0:01:13.950,0:01:14.490
gamer,
0:01:14.490,0:01:17.610
it's all about being more productive.
0:01:17.610,0:01:20.009
Let's start off by talking about your
0:01:20.009,0:01:22.110
keyboard, a good keyboard is a hundred
0:01:22.110,0:01:24.810
percent necessary for Photoshop. Most of
0:01:24.810,0:01:26.189
the features are for your own comfort
0:01:26.189,0:01:28.290
and personal preference, but there are
0:01:28.290,0:01:29.939
some practical features that make them a
0:01:29.939,0:01:31.290
good investment.
0:01:31.290,0:01:33.840
One of the biggest features that might
0:01:33.840,0:01:34.890
make you more money
0:01:34.890,0:01:37.320
are macro keys. These are extra keys on
0:01:37.320,0:01:38.610
your keyboard that you can program to
0:01:38.610,0:01:41.070
any hot key, keys stroke combinations and
0:01:41.070,0:01:44.189
more. It's incredibly useful. Your
0:01:44.189,0:01:46.049
productivity will improve so much once
0:01:46.049,0:01:48.180
you start using it. If you want to add a
0:01:48.180,0:01:49.979
hotkey in Photoshop you can do it by
0:01:49.979,0:01:52.680
going to "Edit" -> "Keyboard Shortcuts" but
0:01:52.680,0:01:53.640
you're going to have a tough time
0:01:53.640,0:01:55.560
finding hotkey that's not already taken.
0:01:55.560,0:01:59.009
A better solution is to use macros. For
0:01:59.009,0:02:01.049
example, I have a macro for converting a
0:02:01.049,0:02:03.600
layer to a Smart Object. What this macro
0:02:03.600,0:02:07.110
does is it process the combinations ALT + L
0:02:07.110,0:02:09.750
S + S which basically loads a command from
0:02:09.750,0:02:12.630
the menu. On Macs it's more complicated but
0:02:12.630,0:02:14.820
it's still possible. I don't use Macs
0:02:14.820,0:02:16.710
anymore but from what I remember, you
0:02:16.710,0:02:18.390
have to press something like Command + F2
0:02:18.390,0:02:19.950
and then use the arrow keys on keyboard
0:02:19.950,0:02:22.560
to navigate around the menus. It sounds
0:02:22.560,0:02:24.450
like a lot of keystrokes but you can
0:02:24.450,0:02:26.250
record your macros with no delays and
0:02:26.250,0:02:27.870
it'll play so fast that it feels like
0:02:27.870,0:02:30.540
you're pressing a hotkey. I use macros
0:02:30.540,0:02:32.760
all the time and I have it set so the
0:02:32.760,0:02:34.260
macro keys will change depending on
0:02:34.260,0:02:36.870
which software I'm currently using. Time is
0:02:36.870,0:02:39.000
money, if you're not using macros yet I
0:02:39.000,0:02:41.400
highly recommend you try it out. Once you
0:02:41.400,0:02:43.380
get into a habit of using it, and you
0:02:43.380,0:02:45.209
build your own profiles you'll get things
0:02:45.209,0:02:48.450
done so much faster. Once you start using
0:02:48.450,0:02:50.010
macros, you're going to run into another
0:02:50.010,0:02:52.590
problem when you have so many macro set,
0:02:52.590,0:02:54.030
it's hard to remember which one does
0:02:54.030,0:02:56.459
what. And this is where RGB lighting comes
0:02:56.459,0:02:57.120
in.
0:02:57.120,0:02:58.830
Look for keywords that let you set the
0:02:58.830,0:03:01.170
colors for every individual key like the
0:03:01.170,0:03:04.290
Corsair K95 keyboard. Some keyboards will
0:03:04.290,0:03:06.390
say that they have RGB lighting but they
0:03:06.390,0:03:07.860
only let you have one color for your
0:03:07.860,0:03:10.110
entire keyboard or for a couple zones
0:03:10.110,0:03:11.970
in your keyboard and not the individual
0:03:11.970,0:03:14.220
keys. Make sure that the keyboard you're
0:03:14.220,0:03:18.660
buying has per key RGB lighting. I'm
0:03:18.660,0:03:21.420
currently using a Corsair K95 keyboard. It
0:03:21.420,0:03:24.030
has 18 macro keys and I use all of it. In
0:03:24.030,0:03:25.799
fact, it's not enough for me so I have a
0:03:25.799,0:03:28.860
second macro pad, the Logitech G13. I
0:03:28.860,0:03:30.690
recommend this if you need more macro keys
0:03:30.690,0:03:32.519
or if you're using a laptop and don't
0:03:32.519,0:03:34.530
want to carry around a gigantic keyboard.
0:03:34.530,0:03:36.989
There are other options like this crazy
0:03:36.989,0:03:38.940
Cherry keyboard with more keys than you'll
0:03:38.940,0:03:40.890
ever need. But i don't recommend this
0:03:40.890,0:03:42.450
because the software is quite outdated,
0:03:42.450,0:03:44.430
and it's not as flexible as the other
0:03:44.430,0:03:46.799
software from other manufacturers. So
0:03:46.799,0:03:48.720
which keyboard do I recommend? Here are my
0:03:48.720,0:03:52.530
top five recommendations: The razer
0:03:52.530,0:03:54.540
orbweaver is a macro packed with 20 keys
0:03:54.540,0:03:56.549
in the main area and additional keys
0:03:56.549,0:03:59.040
around it. It has per key RGB lighting,
0:03:59.040,0:04:01.530
great build quality and software that
0:04:01.530,0:04:03.480
lets you set customizable macros with
0:04:03.480,0:04:06.150
unlimited profiles. I recommend this if
0:04:06.150,0:04:08.160
you are using a laptop or if you need a
0:04:08.160,0:04:09.590
lot of macro keys.
0:04:09.590,0:04:12.440
If you don't need the per key RGB lighting
0:04:12.440,0:04:15.560
the Logitech G13 is a better choice. Its
0:04:15.560,0:04:17.150
price's lower and has some of its own
0:04:17.150,0:04:19.820
unique benefits. It gives you 22 macro
0:04:19.820,0:04:22.190
keys, three dedicated profile switching
0:04:22.190,0:04:24.770
buttons, and a dedicated on-the-fly macro
0:04:24.770,0:04:27.139
recording button. It doesn't have per key
0:04:27.139,0:04:29.120
RGB lighting like the razor or weaver
0:04:29.120,0:04:31.430
chroma but it does have an LCD which is
0:04:31.430,0:04:33.229
useful for displaying your CPU and RAM
0:04:33.229,0:04:36.199
usage. If you use a lot of Photoshop
0:04:36.199,0:04:38.840
actions the Steelseries Apex 350 is a
0:04:38.840,0:04:40.280
great keyboard that's not too expensive.
0:04:40.280,0:04:43.490
It has plenty of macro keys, but, what I like
0:04:43.490,0:04:44.330
most about it
0:04:44.330,0:04:47.360
are the macro keys above the f1 to 12 buttons.
0:04:47.360,0:04:48.830
They're great for mapping your favorite
0:04:48.830,0:04:51.380
Photoshop actions. The con of this keyboard
0:04:51.380,0:04:53.180
is that the keys aren't mechanical and
0:04:53.180,0:04:54.830
you can only set the colors based on a
0:04:54.830,0:04:57.050
couple zones, not the individual keys.
0:04:58.560,0:05:00.680
The logitech G190 is a great mechanical
0:05:00.680,0:05:03.320
keyboard with per key RGB lighting. It has
0:05:03.320,0:05:05.479
nine macro keys which isn't many but
0:05:05.479,0:05:07.220
they're located on the left and top side
0:05:07.220,0:05:08.720
which is useful if you like to have two
0:05:08.720,0:05:11.210
sets of macro keys. For example, on the
0:05:11.210,0:05:13.190
top macro keys you can use that to store
0:05:13.190,0:05:15.440
your favorite Photoshop actions and the
0:05:15.440,0:05:17.270
sides - you can use that for a common
0:05:17.270,0:05:19.070
Photoshop commands like rearranging your
0:05:19.070,0:05:23.210
layers. My top recommendation is also the
0:05:23.210,0:05:24.979
keyboard that I'm currently using. The
0:05:24.979,0:05:28.580
Corsair K95 RGB. It has a whopping 18 macro
0:05:28.580,0:05:30.950
keys. A dedicated on-the-fly macro
0:05:30.950,0:05:33.380
recording button, three dedicated profile
0:05:33.380,0:05:36.139
switching buttons and per key RGB lighting.
0:05:36.139,0:05:38.690
It also has the best build quality I've
0:05:38.690,0:05:40.610
ever seen in a keyboard and the software
0:05:40.610,0:05:43.340
is very very customizable. Anything you
0:05:43.340,0:05:44.810
can think of, you can probably do in the
0:05:44.810,0:05:47.150
Corsair software. It's not as user friendly
0:05:47.150,0:05:49.520
as other software like Logitech, but if you
0:05:49.520,0:05:51.289
can use Photoshop, then you'll have no
0:05:51.289,0:05:52.729
problems learning how to use the Corsair
0:05:52.729,0:05:53.840
software.
0:05:53.840,0:05:55.700
The only downside is that once in awhile,
0:05:55.700,0:05:58.340
the macros will just stop working but
0:05:58.340,0:06:00.169
once you open the Corsair software, it'll
0:06:00.169,0:06:02.720
fix itself immediately. Aside from the
0:06:02.720,0:06:03.860
software issues,
0:06:03.860,0:06:05.450
this is the best keyboard you can get
0:06:05.450,0:06:07.420
for Photoshop.
0:06:07.420,0:06:09.730
Now let's talk about something more
0:06:09.730,0:06:12.490
important, your mouse. I see people doing
0:06:12.490,0:06:14.560
professional work that requires precise
0:06:14.560,0:06:16.570
movement and they're using a cheap mouse,
0:06:16.570,0:06:18.430
usually the free mouse that comes with a
0:06:18.430,0:06:20.920
computer. A good mouse makes a huge
0:06:20.920,0:06:22.390
difference especially if you're working
0:06:22.390,0:06:25.870
on a high-res display.
0:06:25.870,0:06:27.520
Have you ever switch to a new mouse and
0:06:27.520,0:06:29.650
found that you're not used to it? You can
0:06:29.650,0:06:31.510
tweak the DPI settings all you want but
0:06:31.510,0:06:33.850
it never feels like your old mouse. It's
0:06:33.850,0:06:35.110
probably because of the sensor
0:06:35.110,0:06:38.290
position. On this G700s mouse, these
0:06:38.290,0:06:39.760
sensors located near the front of the
0:06:39.760,0:06:41.680
mouse while on this Corsair Scimitar
0:06:41.680,0:06:44.200
mouse, it's located at the center. Look at
0:06:44.200,0:06:45.550
the bottom of your mouse and notice where
0:06:45.550,0:06:48.130
the sensor is positioned. I realize that the
0:06:48.130,0:06:49.780
sensor position changes the way that I
0:06:49.780,0:06:52.870
hold the mouse. On the g700s, my palm
0:06:52.870,0:06:54.400
would be resting on the mouse which
0:06:54.400,0:06:56.710
makes it very comfortable to use. But on
0:06:56.710,0:06:58.420
my Corsair mouse, I tend to hold it like
0:06:58.420,0:07:00.280
a claw because I'm used to holding my
0:07:00.280,0:07:02.050
mouse so that the fingers are positioned
0:07:02.050,0:07:04.390
near the sensor. If you want something that
0:07:04.390,0:07:06.400
feels like your old mouse, try to find a
0:07:06.400,0:07:08.350
mouse where the sensor position is roughly
0:07:08.350,0:07:09.820
the same as your old one.
0:07:09.820,0:07:12.880
The main reason for getting a gaming mouse
0:07:12.880,0:07:14.980
is the adjustable DPI setting and
0:07:14.980,0:07:17.800
improve polling rate. DPI stands for dots
0:07:17.800,0:07:19.300
per inch and it's basically a
0:07:19.300,0:07:20.950
measurement of how sensitive your mouse
0:07:20.950,0:07:23.350
is. A higher DPI mouse will move your
0:07:23.350,0:07:25.900
cursors more pixels per inch. The quick
0:07:25.900,0:07:27.910
gist is that all gaming mouse have more
0:07:27.910,0:07:29.650
DPI than you need even on a 4k
0:07:29.650,0:07:32.440
display. Normal non-gaming mouse however,
0:07:32.440,0:07:34.330
will typically have a fixed DPI
0:07:34.330,0:07:37.360
between 800 and 1200 which is sufficient
0:07:37.360,0:07:39.640
for low res display. But if you have a 4k
0:07:39.640,0:07:41.290
display, you should really be getting a
0:07:41.290,0:07:43.330
gaming mouse with at least 2,000 DPI.
0:07:43.330,0:07:46.630
Anything over 6,000 DPI is excessive.
0:07:46.630,0:07:48.610
There's no harm in getting the most with
0:07:48.610,0:07:50.800
a very high DPI setting but just make
0:07:50.800,0:07:52.330
sure you're not specifically spending
0:07:52.330,0:07:54.770
money for that extra feature.
0:07:54.770,0:07:58.009
On my 40 inch 4k monitor, I have my mouse
0:07:58.009,0:08:00.259
set to 2000 DPI which will move it
0:08:00.259,0:08:01.849
roughly halfway across the screen for
0:08:01.849,0:08:04.250
every one inch of movement. If you're
0:08:04.250,0:08:06.470
used to using a low DPI, it'll will take some
0:08:06.470,0:08:08.810
time to adapt to a higher DPI settings and
0:08:08.810,0:08:10.580
this is where the DPI buttons on your mouse
0:08:10.580,0:08:13.009
will come in handy. Most gaming mouse will
0:08:13.009,0:08:14.360
have buttons to increase or
0:08:14.360,0:08:16.430
decrease the DPI so if you need more
0:08:16.430,0:08:18.020
precision, you can simply press the
0:08:18.020,0:08:20.090
button to lower the DPI and make your mouse
0:08:20.090,0:08:22.460
slower. If you want your mouse to move faster,
0:08:22.460,0:08:24.110
you can press the button to increase
0:08:24.110,0:08:26.419
the DPI. It's a very handy feature.
0:08:26.419,0:08:29.389
Finally, polling rate is the other reason
0:08:29.389,0:08:31.550
to buy a gaming mouse. Polling rate is a
0:08:31.550,0:08:33.169
measurement of how often your mouse
0:08:33.169,0:08:35.539
reports its position to your computer. A
0:08:35.539,0:08:36.829
higher polling rate means that your
0:08:36.829,0:08:39.050
mouse is more responsive. Normal
0:08:39.050,0:08:40.610
non-gaming most will have a polling rate
0:08:40.610,0:08:42.770
of a hundred 125 Hertz which means,
0:08:42.770,0:08:44.690
it reports its possession to a computer
0:08:44.690,0:08:46.459
125 times a second or
0:08:46.459,0:08:48.980
every 8 milliseconds. Gaming mouse
0:08:48.980,0:08:50.630
will typically have higher polling rates
0:08:50.630,0:08:54.170
such as 250 Hertz, 500 Hertz, and 1000
0:08:54.170,0:08:56.240
Hertz. You will notice the difference
0:08:56.240,0:08:58.070
going from a non-gaming mouse with a
0:08:58.070,0:08:59.420
polling rate of a 125
0:08:59.420,0:09:02.720
Hertz to a gaming mouse with 500 Hertz. The
0:09:02.720,0:09:04.850
difference between 500 and 1,000 Hertz
0:09:04.850,0:09:08.360
however is not very noticeable. Just like
0:09:08.360,0:09:09.829
how you can buy a keyboard with macro
0:09:09.829,0:09:11.600
buttons, you can buy a mouse with macro
0:09:11.600,0:09:13.610
buttons too. It's a great way to improve
0:09:13.610,0:09:16.100
your productivity. The benefit to macro
0:09:16.100,0:09:17.870
buttons on your mouse compared to a keyboard
0:09:17.870,0:09:19.190
is that you don't need to let go of your
0:09:19.190,0:09:21.589
mouse so often. I have my mouse set to
0:09:21.589,0:09:24.560
switch tabs, zoom in and out, close a
0:09:24.560,0:09:26.930
document, and scroll up and down a panel.
0:09:26.930,0:09:29.630
In Photoshop, for some reason the page up,
0:09:29.630,0:09:31.640
down, home, and end keys don't work in the
0:09:31.640,0:09:34.430
panels. Using the scroll wheel is very
0:09:34.430,0:09:35.089
slow.
0:09:35.089,0:09:36.620
So what I did was I made a macro to
0:09:36.620,0:09:38.430
let me scroll faster like this
0:09:38.430,0:09:43.410
and even faster like this. By the way,
0:09:43.410,0:09:45.540
don't forget to use a mouse pad. I used
0:09:45.540,0:09:47.160
to use the mouse on a bare surface of my
0:09:47.160,0:09:48.839
desk but I've been using a mouse pad
0:09:48.839,0:09:50.310
for a couple months now and it makes a
0:09:50.310,0:09:51.600
huge difference.
0:09:51.600,0:09:53.760
It's a lot smoother and it also extends
0:09:53.760,0:09:56.550
the life of the mouse feet. It's hard to
0:09:56.550,0:09:58.440
get a gaming mouse that isn't good.
0:09:58.440,0:09:59.610
Any gaming mouse will be a huge
0:09:59.610,0:10:01.860
improvement over a non-gaming mouse but
0:10:01.860,0:10:03.810
here are my top picks. The Corsair Scimitar
0:10:03.810,0:10:05.640
RGB is the one I'm currently
0:10:05.640,0:10:08.100
using. It's a wired mouse with 12 macro
0:10:08.100,0:10:10.320
keys on the side and two DPI buttons on
0:10:10.320,0:10:12.630
the top. The position of the side buttons
0:10:12.630,0:10:14.490
can be adjusted and I have mine set to
0:10:14.490,0:10:17.040
very front. It's a very comfortable mouse
0:10:17.040,0:10:18.779
and just like with the corsair keyboard,
0:10:18.779,0:10:21.630
the build quality is awesome. The downside
0:10:21.630,0:10:23.279
is that the scroll wheel doesn't tilt so
0:10:23.279,0:10:26.490
you can't scroll horizontally. If you like
0:10:26.490,0:10:27.959
the Corsair mouse but wish it was
0:10:27.959,0:10:30.300
wireless, the Razer Naga Epic Chroma is a
0:10:30.300,0:10:32.580
great alternative. The side buttons are fixed
0:10:32.580,0:10:34.800
so you can't adjust the position of it. But,
0:10:34.800,0:10:36.570
it does have a tilt-scroll wheel and it
0:10:36.570,0:10:38.640
comes with a charging base. It's a great
0:10:38.640,0:10:40.649
mouse, but it's also quite pricey at around
0:10:40.649,0:10:44.070
130 US dollars. The Logitech G600 is a
0:10:44.070,0:10:45.570
wired mouse and just like the previous
0:10:45.570,0:10:47.610
two mouses, it has 12 macro buttons on the
0:10:47.610,0:10:49.740
side and two DPI buttons on the top.
0:10:49.740,0:10:52.589
But unlike the two, it has a third mouse button
0:10:52.589,0:10:54.779
which is very cool. You can set the
0:10:54.779,0:10:56.760
button so that if you hold onto, it will lower
0:10:56.760,0:10:59.700
the DPI and give you slower most movements.
0:10:59.700,0:11:01.200
I personally haven't gotten used to that
0:11:01.200,0:11:03.240
and I find that using the DPI buttons
0:11:03.240,0:11:05.160
it's easier. But if you can get used to
0:11:05.160,0:11:06.959
it or you have ways of making use of the
0:11:06.959,0:11:08.850
third mouse button, then this is a great
0:11:08.850,0:11:09.480
choice.
0:11:09.480,0:11:11.339
The best thing I like about this mouse
0:11:11.339,0:11:13.020
is that the side buttons have an angle to
0:11:13.020,0:11:14.820
them which makes it very easy to feel
0:11:14.820,0:11:17.410
which button you're pressing.
0:11:17.410,0:11:19.509
Coming in second place is the Logitech
0:11:19.509,0:11:22.120
G930. It is the best wireless mouse you can
0:11:22.120,0:11:23.980
get. It's super lightweight, has the most
0:11:23.980,0:11:26.290
advanced optical sensor, the fastest
0:11:26.290,0:11:28.029
response time for a wireless mouse, and
0:11:28.029,0:11:30.459
it even has a built-in 32-bit ARM Cortex
0:11:30.459,0:11:32.019
processor to power all of this.
0:11:32.019,0:11:34.420
Essentially as the best mouse you can get
0:11:34.420,0:11:36.069
but the reason why this doesn't win the
0:11:36.069,0:11:37.779
first place is because it's overkill for
0:11:37.779,0:11:40.720
photography work and for 150 US dollars,
0:11:40.720,0:11:43.000
It's not cheap. I recommend this mouse if you're
0:11:43.000,0:11:44.410
left handed or if you just want the
0:11:44.410,0:11:46.149
best mouse that you can get and money is
0:11:46.149,0:11:48.250
not a concern. However, keep in mind that
0:11:48.250,0:11:49.870
this doesn't have as many macro buttons
0:11:49.870,0:11:51.220
as the previous three mouses that we
0:11:51.220,0:11:54.250
mentioned. The number one mouse is the
0:11:54.250,0:11:57.129
Logitech G700s. I've been using this mouse
0:11:57.129,0:11:58.779
for a long time and although it doesn't
0:11:58.779,0:12:00.459
have as many buttons as this first three
0:12:00.459,0:12:02.709
mouses, it has them positioned in better
0:12:02.709,0:12:05.259
places. One of the issues with having so
0:12:05.259,0:12:06.879
many buttons crammed onto the side is
0:12:06.879,0:12:08.740
that it's easy to press the wrong one.
0:12:08.740,0:12:11.410
This mouse has four buttons on the side, 3 on the
0:12:11.410,0:12:13.600
left mouse button, and one in the center.
0:12:13.600,0:12:15.910
The other benefit is that this is an
0:12:15.910,0:12:18.339
incredibly comfortable mouse. I've used
0:12:18.339,0:12:20.170
this mouse for over five years and I love it.
0:12:20.620,0:12:22.420
The only reason why I switch away from this
0:12:22.420,0:12:24.550
mouse is for productivity reasons.
0:12:24.550,0:12:26.410
I simply needed a mouse with more buttons.
0:12:26.410,0:12:28.899
The downside with this mouse is that it is not
0:12:28.899,0:12:30.670
very durable. I went through three
0:12:30.670,0:12:32.620
replacements - twice because the scroll
0:12:32.620,0:12:34.180
wheel broke and once because the left
0:12:34.180,0:12:35.170
mouse button broke.
0:12:35.170,0:12:37.180
However, Logitech's customer support was
0:12:37.180,0:12:38.800
awesome and they sent me replacements for
0:12:38.800,0:12:40.899
free. And you can see on mine is already
0:12:40.899,0:12:42.730
showing signs of wear and tear.
0:12:42.730,0:12:44.920
It's still the most comfortable mouse, it's
0:12:44.920,0:12:47.470
also wireless, low priced, and has a lot of
0:12:47.470,0:12:49.660
buttons. And that's why the Logitech
0:12:49.660,0:12:53.710
G700s is the best most for Photoshop.
