Avoid the Logitech Performance MX mouse. Not because of ergonomics but because it eats batteries. It comes with an Eneloop rechargeable and can be used while recharging, but the problem I've had since day one is, it rarely lasts more than 4-6 hours. Logitech replaced mine under warranty and the new one performs exactly the same, so it seems like that's all it can do. I ended up just using it as a wired mouse, which defeats the purpose.
Personally I have bigger hands, so I like to have a big mouse. The MX is large, but honestly not large enough. This image gives some good idea about sizes, but it hasn't been updated since 2012: http://cdn.overclock.net/1/1f/1fea65b7_Mouse-Sizing-Chart.jpeg Don't skimp on your mouse, keyboard, monitor(s) or chair. You use them all day every day, so why be uncomfortable. -Paul On Tue, Sep 30, 2014 at 12:10 PM, Emilio Hernandez <[email protected]> wrote: > I switched to a Wacom 12 years ago. > > I was still using an old typical Dell mouse for SI around 4 years ago. > But since I started sculpting in Zbrush and going back and forth from > Zbrush to Softimage, I started using the stylus more and more in > Softimage.
