    Recomend me a mouse!

    I don t know how to explain this... but I got used to using a MS Explorer 2.0 wireless. I loved it soo much that I gave away my Logitec 510 I have goten adicted to BF2 and I am noticing I am unable to move my mouse fluidlyly and persisely as I would like... Simply put, I cant move my mouse in small amounts!

    So, I am looking at these to mouses, The MX laser is nice since its cordles... but the G5 has its own set of features... Which one is best for gaming?

    Logitech G5 Laser

    vs

    Logitech MX1000

    The G5 would be best for gaming, since it's built specifically for gaming, but MX1000 is also perfectly suitable. I think the G5 has sensitivity adjustment buttons in place of Forward and Back, which I personally would find quite useless, but it could be different for you. The MX1000 has loads of buttons and is built very ergonomically, has a perfect weight IMO, and is aimed at both high performance as well as all round usage of the computer.

    I personally own an MX1000, so I would know a tiny bit about it

    I just read about that dpi changer, and it looks amazing! I'd be able to snipe like a pro! But wireless is the way to go since I'm used to it... err... i had having to choise

    I use the Logitech MX518 Gamers mouse, and its perfect, with the buttons on the mouse to drop and increase the dpi of the mouse, I can spin as fast as I like or slow the mouse right down to nail those perfect head shots

    My G5 rocks, I used to have a cheap £10 optica thing from argos, the difference is insane! It is sooooo accurate, you aim for their heads and thats exactly where you hit, my score in BF2 and CS rocketed. Its quite simply the best thing ever. Its incredibly comfy too, it could have been made for my hand. The weight adjustment is also great.

    U could be a Logitech salesman m8 . I agree that the MX1000 seems to have a tendency to jump around in game, got me killed million of times already. But then i hate wire and G5/G7 is insanely expensive.
    Primary kit:
    Fuji S5 Pro - Nikkor AF 50/1.8 - Nikkor AF 85/1.8
    Epson RD-1

    Film Kit:
    Leica M3 - Summicron 50/2 DR - Zeiss ZM 25/2.8 - M-Rokkor 40/2

    Olympus OM2n - Zuiko 50/2 Macro - Zuiko 50/1.4 - Zuiko 35/2.8
