Zoom lens suggestion that covers 6k WS

[Jeremy Wiles]

I have a shoot next week and I need a zoom that will cover 17-50. I was checking out some of the Angenuix Optimo's, but most won't cover 6k WS. They either porthole or vignette.

Does anyone know if the Optimo 17.5-70 covers 6k WS?

Do you have any suggestions for a zoom that covers 17-50 and covers 6k WS?

Thanks,
Jeremy

Well I guess I'm fairly late for this and the is also not much to add to Brians answer but for what it's worth:

I personally am not a big fan of still lenses for video for the obvious reasons (short focus throw, breathing, etc) but they all cover 6K easily and if you are operating on your own they might be quite handy. I personally like the OS in most if them, especially if I have to go handheld and stuff.
