The advantage of lidar is not swivelling, but that it directly provides distance information (whereas with cameras you need to extract that from the parallax of two images).
It's not clear to me what advantage a swivelling camera would bring; Tesla just has cameras for all directions, which is likely cheaper and more reliable.
