Just over two weeks ago, we ran a story about a then unconfirmed Sony camera event which would be held on March 13th. Though details were sketchy, we were almost certain that Sony would be announcing the rumored 16-megapixel Alpha A57 while some even believe that there will be an addition to the NEX line: perhaps an NEX-6? As I’ve said before, I’m doubtful of a surprise camera from Sony though it would be a nice change, seeing how most of their products are leaked months in advance. Still, the possibility of  additional lenses is also rumored but we’ve yet to be able to nail down any concrete details.

Now we’ve learned that the March 13th date is in fact wrong but only by two days. Sony will instead be hosting a March 15th event in the UK where the A57 is expected to be officially announced. My personal hopes include the announcement of the NEX-6 which would close the gap between the NEX-5 and NEX-7 (line the audio input which is all I need from the NEX-7!). After jump, share with us some of your hopes for this announcement.

If Sony were to announce a secret camera, what would you like it to be?
