You can get real-time debayering+decompression with high end dual Xeons.

Editing should be fine, since you can edit with 1/2 or even 1/4 resolution previews. The rendering will take some time, but workable – it depends on how much you have going on.
Just keep your source footage drive separate from your project/preview/temporary renders drives. If the source drive can sustain about 200 MB/s you should be okay. This means either two 7,200 drives in RAID 0 (Won’t recommend this) or a 512 GB SSD, minimum. A five minute project might have an hour or two of footage.
Additionally, check out the Premiere Pro CS6 creative cloud solution – you could lease for a couple of months and have access to all software. Nothing wrong with Vegas, though.
All the best.

The class 10 Transcends are good, but give me problems with video. Sandisk Pro series works fine.

Canon probably makes the best tilt-shift lenses, but they are the most expensive.
On the other end of the spectrum, you have a Lensbaby, which is no fun for professional video.
Probably the best option, which gives you the greatest range of movements, is a technical view camera. You will need to find a rear standard adapter for the BMCC. There are some available for DSLRs, so you might want to get in touch with the folks who make them. Budget-wise, this will fall in between the first two options.
If speed is critical, nothing beats Canon glass. For precision and the greatest range of motion/coverage, nothing beats a technical view camera.

Nothing wrong with the A99 for both stills and video.

It’s tough to say without knowing what you’re shooting. Generally, both te 60d and the 7d might see new versions soon, and I’d wait and watch.
With your budget, I’d look at the GH3. The ‘thing’ about full frame sensor cameras is that their zoom lenses tend to be more expensive. The equivalent to the Tamron would be a Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8. The Canon version of this zoom range is crazy expensive. The Sigma isn’t cheap either.

Sure, you can. One doesn’t affect the other.
I’m not familiar with flaat but I’ve compared Cinestyle with Neutral a couple of years ago: https://wolfcrow.com/blog/technicolor-cinestyle-vs-neutral/
Hope this helps.

The Tamron 17-50mm will only work on crop sensor cameras, like the 7D, etc. it’s not made for FF cameras.

It doesn’t invalidate anything you’re saying, but I think the calculation is incorrect.
4096 x 2304 = 9,437,184 pixels
Color Bit Depth per pixel = 10 bits per channel
Channels = 3 (RGB) channels (If there is an alpha channel or more, like OpenEXR, then you’ll need to multiply)
Total Color Bit Depth per pixel (across all channels) = 10 x 3 = 30Total bits = 30 x 9,437,184 = 283,115,520 bits = 35,389,440 bytes = 33.75 MB per frame.
On top of this, you have to account for metadata for DPX, which is not a lot if you’re only calculating data rate.
@24fps, Data Rate = 33.75 x 24 = 810 MB/s.

IPad, with an SD card adapter. Pretty good images, considering it looks like cr*p.
