Today, B and H Photo posted an ad for a Photoshop CC dedicated keyboard. Has anyone tried it out. Could this be a breakthrough for those of us who have trouble memorizing the extensive photoshop command structure?

To each their own.

If my memory does not fail me, there is a way to print adobe PS CC keyboard shortcuts...

It is not made by Logitech. Don't assume Logitech quality or design.

I use a "low vision" keyboard with letters nearly 1/2" high. The problem I'd have with the PS keyboard is the text is so small I'd need a magnifier to read it. I'd be better off using a tablet with custom dedicated buttons for frequently used commands. The complexity of commands in PS is why I use LRC 95% of the time.

I haven't used the keyboard in question, but I'm not sure the concept is all that helpful. If you have to hunt all over the keyboard to find the function, how is that saving any time? Add in the issue of the hard-to read small text, and I don't think the keyboard is worth 129 bucks.

No one will ever use all the shortcuts in Photoshop, so IMO you're better off just memorizing the shortcuts for what you do all the time. You can also program your own keyboard shortcuts, changing or overriding defaults if you wish. I find it more difficult to remember function buttons on my cameras than the Ps shortcuts, but I've been using most of them for thirty years...

What low vision keyboard do you use? My husband has very low vision and I try to put accommodations on his laptop?

Rather than making an investment in a new keyboard, silicone keyboard templates are ubiquitous for Photoshop and other popular programs such as Excel and Word. If you do an Internet search, you will get several hits.

It obviously not a Logitech keyboard but they did try to fool you into thinking it's a Logitech keyboard.

Years ago, I did a lot of architectural engineering. I used AutoCad. There was a large panel called a digitizer that had the most frequently used commands in a grid that could be selected by the touch of a stylus. There was also a drawing panel. It was a very valuable tool for anyone who did a lot of design work. Now, the on-screen menu system does the job as well or better and can be easily customized.

Yes especially today you have multiple screens on your computer. However, keyboard shotcuts are still useful if you can use them without looking at the keyboard. If you do have to look at the keyboard then they are not useful anymore.

I was recently gifted a low vision keyboard, all large letters and brightly backlit. Threw the box away and no name on KB. Labeled on back "wired backlit keyboard". Am reasonably sure it was purchased on Amazon.
