Default New Sigma Gear
Sigma have unveiled 3 updates and 2 new lenses.

70-200 f/2.8
Sigma launches stabilized 70-200mm F2.8 telezoom: Digital Photography Review

17-50 f/2.8
Sigma releases 17-50mm F2.8 EX DC OS HSM: Digital Photography Review

50-500 (Bigma)
Sigma stabilizes 50-500mm ultra-telezoom: Digital Photography Review

They've also released two new lenses that will likely intrigue quite a few people

85mm f/1.4
Sigma releases 85mm F1.4 EX DG HSM: Digital Photography Review

8-16 f/4.5-5.6
Sigma goes ultrawide with 8-16mm F4.5-5.6 DC: Digital Photography Review

I think the most important here are the addition of OS to the Bigma 50-500, the new 85mm (if it's as good as the 30/1.4) and the new super-duper wide 8-16. That's rectilinear folks!

Yeah, it looks like a nice patch. I'll be interesting to see what the reviews are like on them. That 8-16mm caught my eye too.
