Hi William. My view is that these DSLRs are great for certain shots, especially closeups with shallow DOF. For wide area views that usually show a lot of fine detail, you are probably better off with...

I find vegas does not do the scene detection properly, there's usually a few frames from the adjacent scene stuck to the end of each clip. Not sure if it's a 25P thing, a Canon HV30 issue (I use HV30...

I'd go for the 12 DVD option (actually 10 discs are probably enough). Doesn't take that long to burn, and it's way cheaper than buying a hard drive.

The situation with Blu Ray and 25p is the same as with DVD and 25p. If you shoot and edit 25p properly, the 25p cadence will be preserved even though the file on the disc is 50i.

It's very easy to handle overcranked clips in Edius, because it allows you to override the default frame rate of a clip. So you just set the 60fps clip to 24fps and it will play back as nice, smooth...

Hi Jon. It is also a good idea to disable resampling for that clip, so that Vegas does not try to create any new frames by interpolation or frame blending.
