i used zeiss 10-100 T2 zoom and zeiss 16mm primes ...
also nikor 200 F2 , 300 F2.8 ... with reg 16mm NPR ...

tried some older c mounts lens made back in 70-early 80's and they were OK on a 8 ft screen .. however when i saw them on a 25ft screen i went with zeiss for rest of movie ...
i also tried some C mt switars on bolex recently and next time will stick with zeiss
 
don't know about Canon lens ??
from what i remember there are 35mm screw mt lens and there are 16mm screw mount lens and the threads are not the same size .. unless you have a 35mm size C mt on teh NPR ( which i think is not possible ) i don't think it will fit on the 16mm C mount ..... maybe there are adaptors out there ??


we used a NPR that had the npr bayanet /C mt ..
for 10-100 zoom we used arri bay to npr bay adaptor ..this adaptor was made out of brass - the rental house mounted it to the zoom and suggested we leave it on - it was very difficult to get on/off zoom ... by using the bay mt we didn't need a lens support for zoom ...
for zeiss primes we used arri bay to C mt adaptor .. if we used zoom with C mt we would need a lens support ...
