Corded Or Wireless Keyboards

I've been using a dinosaur Apple extended/corded keyboard for over eight years that started acting up. I'm not a huge fan of wireless products because I trust corded keyboards and mice much more than their wireless counterparts. I looked long and hard for another keyboard that matched the feel of my old Apple keyboard. There were some that looked great, but upon closer inspection they felt cheap or had a track record of premature failures. You would think someone in this day and age of technology could build a perfect keyboard, but the truth is most keyboards are compromised with poor design, inferior components or both. Nothing on the market compared to the feel of my old board with the exception of the Apple Magic Wireless extended keyboard. For me it feels like a well broken in pair of Levis 501 jeans. Comfortable. My older keyboard had a slight pitch in angle which some may find absolutely essential for comfort over long stretches of typing. The Apple Magic keyboard doesn't have much of an angle, it is shorter in profile and sits relatively

I have the wireless remote but it does not work as well as the corded one.

For many years I have used the corded version of Kensington Trackball. Now is the time to make the switch to Wireless!

I lost my old Vello wireless remote switch, so I bought a new one that is corded. With no need for batteries, I appreciate the simplicity of this switch.

This is the second FreeWave Plus Wireless Remote Shutter release I have purchased. I use it to get away from having to use corded remote releases. Mine have always done that they are suppose to do - release the shutter and have the picture be properly in focus. I have never tested the range, but I know that this particular remote release works at least up to 100'. From a value point of view, this product does what I need it to do at a very reasonable cost.

I previously had a Logitech wireless keyboard that I kept corded to the power. The problem with that was the illumination turned off after a short period to save the batteries that I did not use. This keyboard stays on as long as you want and is very similar otherwise.

I use this all the time and it really helps get sharper pictures. I also own the Canon corded remote shutter release and it's a cheap peace of plastic compared to the Vello Wireless remote. One of the features I really like is this can also be used as a corded remote if you don't need to be far from the camera and you don't want to use your batteries. This is also a great backup if your batteries wear out, although the batteries seem to last forever. No battery power is used in corded mode. Half-shutter-press works well as does burst. This is my second one, having lost part of my first one last summer at a bird photography class. I've used this near my house in the winter to shoot birds while sitting inside with the wireless remote, which worked flawlessly. You can only go 10 ft or so without extending the antenna on the remote, but with the small antenna extended you can go forever. Another great use for the wireless remote is self portraits or group portraits. Put the wireless transmitter in your pocket, stand with the group and look at the camera, tell a joke, and when everyone smiles just push the shutter.

I have the wireless remote but find this one much better because you don’t have to stand in front of the camera. The wireless is mostly for taking self portraits. With the corded I can get down low to the ground with my mini tripod.

This is the best keyboard that I have ever owned. I highly recommend it. I just wish that you would make it in a wireless. I've tried some of your other wireless whisper quiet keyboards and have found this one to be the best.

After going through a few expensive Logitech wireless keyboards that require batteries (I'm really hard on them and type like I'm playing Mozart) I decided I still needed the quiet keyboard, which was wired, and the lightedKB was a bonus. It is quiet and I took mine home for midnight e-mails without turning on all the lights. I'm pleased and had work order one for me. Logitech makes the best KBs. The price of B&H was very competitive.
