My real estate photography business not only requires that I
be on the computer a lot, but that I have precision in the processing of my
photos. While a laptop is convenient for on the fly access to my images, it
comes with the one feature I can’t stand—the touchpad. I was genetically given
piano playing hands with sinewy fingers, which means crunching them up to use
the touchpad is simply uncomfortable.
However, that all changed a few months ago when I started
using the Penclic Ambidextrous Mouse. It holds in your hand like a pen, which
is way more comfortable than either the touchpad or the traditional mouse. As a
ghostwriter, when I’m not out with my camera, the Penclic reminds me of my old
fashioned quill pen sans the ink, but boasting today’s technology demands,
including these three cool features:
- · use either your left or right hand
- · have the option of three different buttons and a scroll wheel
- · it’s both PC and Mac compatible.
So, after a long day of photographing homes, and when it’s
time to process the 30 plus images for my realtors, I welcome the comfort of
using the Penclic. I will say that the only adjustment I had to make was to
lessen the sensitivity of the mouse speed in the Control Panel. Once I did
that, it was spot on and easy to use. No matter what you do on the computer,
this device will increase performance because you can work longer without your
hands cramping up.
One last note: I have the USB version in black because my
laptop doesn’t support Bluetooth, but either are available, and I would have
preferred the Bluetooth version, which I will get when I upgrade my laptop!
