Anyone knows the difference between Sigma lenses with APO and without? Please help!?
I'm thinking to buy the Sigma 70-300mm f/4-5.6 DG Macro lens with built-in motor for Nikon DSLR, but not sure which one to buy because they have 2 versions. One with APO, one without. The APO one costs $50 more. On Sigma's website it says APO is something to prevent chromatic aberration. I just want to know if it is worth it to spend $50 more to get this APO feature... Is it really important? Please advise. Thank you!
To fhotoace:
well, apparently Sigma does have what they call APO lenses and non APO lenses. What's OEM?
APO lens means Apochromatic.
Apochromatic lenses are designed to bring three wavelengths (typically red, green, and blue) into focus in the same plane.
The residual color error (secondary spectrum) can be up to an order of magnitude less than for an achromatic lens of equivalent aperture and focal length. Apochromats are also corrected for spherical aberration at two wavelengths, rather than one as in an achromat.
Go for the APO lens.
Basically you get a better image (especially with telephoto lenses) LoL
