APO = In order to attain the highest quality images, the APO lens has been made using special low-dispersion (SLD) glass and is designed to minimize color aberration ASP = The aspherical lens complex allows freedom of design, improved performance, a reduced number of component lenses and a compact size DG = The most suitable lenses for 35mm film single-lens reflex cameras, as well as for digital SLR cameras. Sigma’s development of the DG (Digital) range of lenses has concentrated on the correction of distortion and aberrations. Suitable for digital and analogue cameras DC = These are special lenses designed so that the image circle matches the smaller size of the image sensor of most digital SLR cameras
