Another question. You mentioned DZO lenses on the 17K. What about Sigma Aiza lenses? Or using the EF mount and adapters, what about Pentax 67 or 645 lenses, or even Mamiya 645 lenses? Any good EF lenses? Which lenses have the best color, as i find lens coatings on some lenses can muddy the colors a bit. Going Pentax 67 or 645 lens could be a fairly cheap option, though I dont know if they'd resolve a 17k sensor.

I posted the link to the coverage chart from Cine D above. That's the only way of actually figuring this out and they add new lenses all the time. 

Yes, the medium format lenses should cover but they are horrible to use for cinema. Nolan figured this out and had his modified for the IMAX cameras and still uses them today for his shoots, so they DO cover no problem, but they have to be re-housed to make them cine happy. 

DZO has out of the box solutions and they look great, very vintage and pretty. Really none of the problems you see with other competitive lenses in this particular sector. My primes will be a set of DZO Arles shortly, I just need to finish a few things and find a set used next year after I sell my current primes off. I tested them and was blown away by the optical quality, even all the way open. I think they are way under represented in the price range they fit into. They don't FULLY cover the 17k frame tho I don't think, they're VERY close.
