Hello all,

I use a lot Lightroom and Photoshop and do not use a mouse for my different photography tasks..I have been using the Trackpad built-in on my MacBook Pro.

I am afraid that byt lots of clicking and pressing on the trackpad migh become deffective.

 

My Photoshop and Lightroom experience is at the beginner level.

 

Should I invest on a Mouse ?

 

Thanks for your thoughts, G

A mouse will give you more control than a track pad.

Buy a mouse that fits perfectly in your hands. I'm using Logitech MX Master. Not exactly an inexpensive one. I took different mice in my hands at the dealer's place. It was the one with the best grip for me. Others love those big fat round mice.

My trackpad has lasted for years, but if you want to, buy an inexpensive usb mouse or trackpad.
