I needed to get some assistance for my XF100-400mm, and I found this
SevenOak CF Gimbal Head Adapter. It functions in much the same way
as the Wimberly
Sidekick at about $100 less costly. It attaches to my ballhead
tripod mount,
and works perfectly.

I find a rotating collar, works just fine for me.
I assume that you are referring to the lens collar + foot. If so that
does
allow rotation from portrait and landscape orientation, as well as
attachment
to a tripod, or monopod. However, a gimbal provides for smooth,
effortless
movement in all axes in addition to the rotation around the lens
collar. This
particular one provides all the support, and freedom of movement at a
reasonable price $130.95.

The only con is that there are ties when i have to remember to lock the
controls.
That last should read "times I have to remember to tighten the control
knobs."
