T lens crop factor when shooting video with the SL.

I am about to purchase an SL and the native lenses are really not in the budget, at least not now. I will be shooting a lot of 4K video with the camera and am considering buying some cheaper T lenses-  the Vario Elmar T Zoom 55-135 and the Summilux T 35mm f1.4. I understand the camera crops to 16x9 when in video mode so will the crop factor of these T lenses be the same as when they are used to take still photos? Or does the "video" crop the camera does make the T lens crop redundant?
