Sure, if you get global shutter and resolution equivalent to about 5 MP bayer sensor or 2 MP monochrome sensor, and get output with an intra-only codec, that's fine.

Those black magic cameras are severely bandwidth bound, compare to e.g. the Pocket Cinema 4k (USB 3 and able to fully load a USB-C SSD), which unfortunately only offers a rolling shutter.

The lens is only slightly relevant, in that an extremely long focal length will cause issues in estimating said focal length, and typically also in depth-of-field if that's relevant for your scene. I suggest no ultra-wide-angle lens and no more than 500 mm (35mm-equivalent). 30-150 mm focal length (35mm-eu) would be the range you want to look at.
