Surface Keyboard Layout

I own a nanoFlash, an Odyssey 7Q, and this 7Q+. I use the latter with an A7s and a PXW-X70, neither of which capture internally when sending a signal out via HDMI, so I attach the nano to the 7Q+ via HD-SDI for redundancy. (If I select camera-trigger, my Sony remote turns REC on for all three devices at once.) Its sturdy and durable. Twice the 7Q+ was pulled out of its camera shoe and fell 4' to a rough hard surface that would probably have destroyed the camera, but the 7Q+ got only a faint surface scratch on its casing. I use the 7Q with my FS100 or a rental FS700 to shoot HFR or RAW. At 7.7 1280x800 provides such a very crisp image it's all the resolution I need to frame and focus, and I like the layout of controls and the codecs Odyssey offers. Why learn another unit's protocols and layout? But I picked the 7Q+ over the other unit specifically for the high quality customer support and technical service Convergent Design has always provided. They are so accessible that they seem like friends working as remote crew. Other reviewers' poor experience is definitely not typical.

This label maker has a standard computer keyboard layout which made it much easier to use then its predecessors.

Regardless of the features, this is far & away the best keyboard I've ever used: The perfect layout of the buttons, the excellent feedback and feel of the action, the clarity & elegance of the graphics, the so-solid heft of this thing. And if you do your computing in a cave, I guess the illumination is useful; otherwise it's just cool.

Great keyboard for an excellent price, I like the classic layout in particular, more productive than most of the keyboards I’ve used recently. The mouse also fells good and is very accurate. I would recommend this product.

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Excellent layout and feel. Both keyboard and mouse are comfortable to use for extended period of time. Pleased with purchase.

Amazing keyboard. Uses the same Logi Bolt receiver (unlike the non-business version) as my MX Master 3 mouse, meaning only one USB port is being used for 2 devices, or zero if I want to use Bluetooth. And I don't notice any lag with either connection technology. Key travel and feel is very nice. Ergonomics are spot on. The only way I could be more comfortable is if it was split into 2 pieces so I could spread my hands even wider. I kinda like the different function key layout compared to the non-business version as well. I like to keep the F keys active because I use them pretty often, so this new layout has the volume up/down keys on non-F-keys so I don't need to switch off F-keys to use them. The one thing I'd like to see changed, though is the Home/End/Delete/P Up/P Down buttons. I wish they were arranged like the K350 keyboard. I used that keyboard for a long time and always thought the layout of those keys on that keyboard made so much more sense. This isn't worth docking stars from this keyboard, though, because very very very few keyboards use that layout.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There are darn few wired keyboards (PS/2 or USB) remaining with a full stroke length and the PROPER key layout. No, I don't want chiclet keys -- I actually touch-type. I type a LOT. I need a keyboard that is accurate, has good rollover support (if you don't type quickly by touch you don't understand why this matters) and I want a WIRED keyboard because the latency on the wireless ones drives me insane. DELL used to have some good ones, but no more. This appears to fit the bill. So far, so good -- I did just get it, so only four stars since I can't yet speak to reliability, but in terms of the "N" key feature it's there or I'd know it INSTANTLY, and the layout and stroke is good. This is a rubber dome, rather than clicky-ratchet switch keyboard. If you're a hard-core keyboardist you understand the difference -- but unfortunately, the cherry ratchet-style switches are simply not found anymore unless you get into the specialty market (think the original IBM PC keyboards.) Then again the ratchet switches are LOUD; these are not. It's a flat layout rather than cupped or curved. Curved won't work with my desk which has a palm rest on the keyboard drawer already; I'd love to find a cupped unit, but they are unobtanium; nobody makes them any more. Oh well. Nonetheless the feel is good, the stroke is full and standard and the cord is blessedly long enough to reach, without an extension, a PC on a desk (through the back or a wiring channel) and maybe on the floor next to you. That's a nice touch too -- most wired USB keyboards have woefully short cords, and even some PS/2 style ones do as well. For the money this is impossible to beat if you want a real keyboard with a standard layout and all full-size, real full-travel keys. I'm sticking another one in my closet in case these wind up no longer available.

This keyboard is all I need: it has proper full size layout, it has dedicated multimedia keys and having all that it wastes no space on my desk as it practically bazel-less. It comes along with a useless mouse which I care not about. It also comes with a nano receiver which means I can't pair this keyboard to an existing unifying receiver; it can only work with the included nano receiver. I wonder what will I do if I lose that receiver. I give it 5 stars because the keyboard itself is the best I could find out there for the price.

Exactly what I wanted from an ergonomic keyboard; compact, has the number keypad, and a good layout. Only downside is these are the squishy keys as opposed to the more tactile keys I like, but you can't have everything.

Great keyboard smooth layout and works great between devices using bluetooth and the unifying USB adapter.
