From the catalogue I got in Japan, there is only 70-300mm APO DG Macro. Cant find any Super II lens though.

From the Sigma website, they claim DG as:
These are large-aperture lenses with wide angles and short minimum focusing distances. With an abundance of peripheral illumination, they are ideal lenses for Digital SLR Cameras whilst retaining suitability for traditional 35mm SLRs.
