Sony is rumored to have scheduled a product announcement event for June 27, when the new RX200 / RX100 MKII might be revealed along with the so-called Mobile Cybershot.

Things are getting serious for Sony in June. Earlier this year, some sources have been mocked when they announced that the PlayStation maker is poised to introduce the so-called RX200, but new information has surfaced on the web.

Sony RX100 MKII / RX200 might make its first appearance on June 27, when the Mobile Cybershot smartphone is also expected to be announced.

Additionally, the new RX shooter will appear on the market shortly after its unveiling, though the precise release date continues to be unknown for the moment.

The June 27 event will have several surprises in toll for camera fans. It has been revealed that the Japan-based corporation will introduce a “Mobile Cybershot”, which probably refers to that Honami smartphone with Cybershot branding.

The smartphone will feature an impressive camera, which will definitely rival the one of the newly-introduced Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom and the rumored 41-megapixel Nokia EOS.

Sony’s Mobile Cybershot smartphone will be powered by the Honami JPEG engine. This new technology will give photographers the possibility of capturing JPEG images at superior quality, solving one of the major problems with Sony cameras.

It may be just speculation, but Leica X Vario is living proof that rumors become true

This information is all based on rumor and speculation, which translates into the fact that it may not be true. However, we have already seen what happened in the Leica Mini M case.

The rumor mill has leaked all the information about the camera, while Leica has denied the claims. Eventually, the Vario X became official and Leica attracted the wrath and criticism of its fans.

Meanwhile, the Leica X Vario is available for purchase at the price of $2,850, while the Sony RX100 costs $648 at Amazon.
