To be pondered...
This entire discussion about 360mm/14" lens with a HUGE image circle (800+ mm) is much about lens choices as the sheet film or plate format goes up-size. This discussion should serve as a harsh remainer of what happens to lens choice as sheet film or plate sizes goes up, the selection and choices for lenses shrinks to fewer to trying to discover nessie, big foot or a platnium unicorn..
Ultimate answer to this lens/optic need is to have a lens designed, built to the specific needs.. Then size, weight and all that is forced into this direction of any specially designed then built lens/optic.
It's all a set of trade offs with nothing being ideal to what any image maker wants to believe..
