Really Obvious Manfrotto 502AH Fluid Head Tip

In this video I sacrifice my self-esteem to share a quick tip that I should've figured out years ago! I love the Manfrotto 502AH Fluid Head, especially when paired with the 055 legs. BUT, I always struggled with the location of the pan and tilt locks. Well, I had an epiphany on set that makes this head much, much easier for me to work with.
