I don't think I'd want to trust a $7,000 lens to a $60 gimbal head.
When I acquired the FA-600/4 I bought this one to mount the lens
(already had the Manfrotto 3021 legs the gimbal head mounts on).

That's definitely a lot better than the $600-1,000 for the ones usually
recommended.
I don't know how much cost affects strength and structural integrity as
opposed to things like smoothness and slop in adjustment. Since I have
other options, I'll hold off until I have a major need for specifically
a gimbal head, or until I get offered an amazing deal on one.
