You should have no problem with coverage, though I'd check the longest 
telephoto you'll use for vignetting. I don't know whether super-16 uses the C 
mount.

The angle of view will be reduced in proportion to the difference in frame 
size.

Watch for minor colour or exposure shifts between lenses. These are a pain 
within a scene. That's why movie makers use T-stops and zooms.
