Unlike Sigma Tamron doesn’t make us wait one year before to launch an A-mount version of a new lens :) The new Tamron 15-30mm f/2.8 lens is going to ship on January 30 according to BHphoto (Click here). The lens can also be preordered at Adorama (Click here).
Both, Canon and Sony are rumored to launch new 50 megapixel Full Frame sensor cameras within the next months. And I guess Nikon will follow the trend and use 50MP (Sony) sensors too. As pointed out by Diglloyd:
50 megapixels vs 36 is 1.18X the linear resolution. In other words, you can make a 42-inch wide print instead of 36-inch wide, all other things being equal, which they most definitely will not be. That’s your best case, barring some other kind of improvement.
So the questions is. Does the extra resolution increase really matter for you?

There is a new firmware update for the RX100m2 you can download at Sony support (Click here and select your OS). What Does This Do?
This utility updates the camera firmware to version 1.10 and improves the vibration and noise of the lens during auto-focusing.

This is the official press text from Metabones:
Sharper corners, less distortion, reduced vignetting
Like the revolutionary original Metabones Speed Booster announced in January 2013, the Speed Booster ULTRA has a magnification of 0.71x, and so it effectively reduces the crop factor of mirrorless cameras with DX-sized sensors, such as Sony E-mount and Fuji X-mount cameras, from 1.5x to 1.07x. However, the new ULTRA design makes very effective use of exotic materials at the furthest limit of glassmaking technology, and as a result is well corrected for use with virtually all fullframe SLR lenses regardless of exit pupil distance. Thus, the Speed Booster ULTRA performs extremely well with professional-grade f/2.8 zoom lenses such as the 24-70mm f/2.8 and 70-200mm f/2.8 zooms by Canon and Nikon to produce 17-50mm f/2.0 and 50-142mm f/2.0 high-speed zooms, respectively. Similarly, high-speed fixed focal length lenses such as a 50mm f/1.2 will be transformed into a 35.5mm f/0.9 lens with excellent contrast and resolution from the center all the way to the edges of the image.
