I received some new hardware today that I had recently ordered from Amazon.  
Can anyone guess what it is? There’s a clue in the little video I put together 😉

Interesting but need more clues. Not that smart LOL.

Best,

Is it a Space Mouse Pro you got Steve?

It is indeed a SpaceMouse!

However, it’s the ‘Compact’ (not the Pro)  
_I had meant to order the wireless version but ordered the wired version in error._

It takes a little getting used to especially after using a conventional mouse, a trackpad and a pen/tablet.

I bought the pro model for use in Photoshop and ZBrush about ten years back but could never get comfortable using. I ended up swapping it for a large monitor. The newer ones look much better. .

Still getting use to mine but just having the ability to smoothly rotate and zoom into a model is a boon for me. I just wish there were some keyboard shortcuts that could do the same and would have saved me £150
