Q: 4. Someone know how it works the photo-panorama switch in the pan head? a twisted and I really don't see any difference

A: what the position change does, when turned to panorama, causes the head to be always movable (rotatable) (to take panorama shots) regardless of how tight you turn the 2 large knobs.when the position in not in panorama mode, the large knobs can be tightened to effectively 'lock' the head, so it can not be moved at all... This is the only way to actually 'lock' the position of the head from movement on any axis.if you do not notice any difference between the positions, you are likely not tightening one of the large knobs tight enough. note: that there is no panorama friction adjustment in panorama mode, but it is reasonably smooth. If you are looking for a head primarily for video panning shots, you are better off choosing one with longer knobs, as although this is a nice head, it is best suited for general, fixed shots due to the short knobs and their respective positional adjustment range.
