What does APO stand for?
What? No Auto Focus?
Will the 10D antishake handle this? Handheld?
George loves Sigma! He's gonna order two
As soon as someone comes up with a bright lens - 2.8, we slap a teleconverter on it. Sigma knows this and throws one in! Depth of field = same as a microscope.
They'll sell like hotcakes.

Apochromatic
means it's corrected for chromatic aberration across the visible spectrum, or possibly a specific method of doing this. Sigma like APO lenses, and I can't say I blame them.

Made me wonder whether this shouldn't have been linked to on the Sigma website until 1st April, just looks too huge to do anything with.

Quote:
An apochromatic lens is corrected to focus all three colours of light at the same point, red, green and blue. Some highly corrected lenses could extend this into the IR part of the sprectrum.
Don't forget that cheaper lenses will achieve this less well than expensive ones, so there are degrees of correction.

Good job it's got that handle on top!
Might put it on my Christmas list, can never usually think of something I want.
