I worked on a show that took 16mm negative and telecined to HD and it was a joy to work with. This was footage from '63. I'm not speaking to detail but the ability to dig things out of the shadows etc... 4K probably won't do much for the dynamic range but I wouldn't think it would hurt.

If you want to get the most then recan the 16mm direct to 4K
