The compact 4.5" tall 3-Way fluid Head from Gitzo is a pan-and-tilt head with independent vertical, lateral, and pan locks. The locks disengage to enable you to move the head with a vertical range of -70° to +90°, in a lateral range of -30° to +90°, and in a full 360° pan. Each axis has an independent fluid cartridge to ensure that every movement is met with effortless smoothness without sticking. The Arca-type clamp at the top of the head also provides a 90° rotation that helps you switch from portrait to landscape orientation, as well as shooting straight to the ground. The two-axis bubble level rotates to match your orientation and ensures your horizon is straight. At the same time, the 2.1 lb three-way fluid head can support camera equipment weighing up to 28.6 lb. Its handles are retractable to easily store away.

Instead of buying a ball head, gimbal head and ...
Instead of buying a ball head, gimbal head and video head, was thinking about a single head to do it all.
One option is the Manfrotto 500AH, with the Kirk bridge with an Arca clamp and replacement metal knob, a Kirk Arca plate slider with another transversal Arca clamp to balance the camera with a smaller collarless lens and an L-bracket to be able to shoot in portrait mode with a collarless lens.
The other solution could potentially be the Gitzo 3-way fluid head, that's more expensive than the Manfrotto 500AH, but on the other hand, it doesn't need aftermarket bridge, slider or L-brackets.
Which solution is more recommended?
Thanks.
I would personally go with the Gitzo 3-Way Fluid Head. The add on parts you listed to use the other head makes it less stable.
