Kinzu v2, Kinzu v2 Pro and Kana - Page 131

Yes! Cursor quality was great @500CPI, just like any A30X0 sensor. Much better than the Pixart sensor for example. Assuming CM used Avago lens/led and the speeds were still too low, i don't think a better firmware can help this sensor reach over 3 m/s. And if you use custom lens we all know what happens.

How does the Kinzu v2 compare to the Deathadder? Where can I find the white/black at?

To me it feels faster and easier to control. It could just be the size. I also found the Kana to feel faster and easier to control, again could be the size factor.

To me the actual accuracy in movements and aiming as far as FPS gaming is concerned is better with the Kana or the Kinzu v2 Pro.


I had a Razer DA BE since it first came out. I had a regular 3500 DPI DA before.


The feet on the Razer DA BE kicked ass. Super smooth.


The feet on the Kana and the Kinzu V2 are ok but next to the DA feet the Kinzu v2 PRo and Kana feet are garbage.

Got my red Kinzu v2 Pro today. I'm really pleased with the mouse.

Pros
- Excellent tracking (after driver/firmware update I have not experienced malfunction issue)
- Lightweight
- Excellent scroll wheel
- Simple design (perfect design for first-person shooters, really - middle button for switching DPI, nothing excessive, no excessive buttons to accidentally press)

Cons
- A little too light (wish it was more like the 90g MX518)
- CPI can only be adjusted in increments of 400

I give this mouse a 9/10

Well done SteelSeries

Tested with QcK+ mouse pad at 800 CPI.

The logo is black along with the scroll wheel, etc.

The black Kinzu v2 Pro has white instead of black.

Sorry if it was mentioned here, but what would happen if you use lens of Kana in Kinzu v2? Is it possible and how it would affect the malfunction speed etc.?

Not just the lens. I had the bust open the plastic protector over the sensor itself. The 3305DK-H and 3305DK variate biggrin.gif
Didn't understand the last sentence. frown.gif
And what about tracking of kanazu, do you like it, any jitter or other bug?
