Fit or not.

Will this lens fit a Canon 500d?
It says it is for canon AF.

Sigma EX 50-500mm F4-6.3 APO RF HSM Autofocus Zoom Lens

EF lenses fit all Canon dslr's but EF-S only fit those with "crop" sensors.

A 500D is a crop sensor camera (together with all the ***D & **D's) therefore both EF and EF-S would fit it.

EF-S lenses don't fit the 5D or 1D cameras

Edit: AF normally just stands for Auto Focus. Canon lenses are normally listed as EF or EF-S as above

Well Canon 500D can fit both EF and EF-S lenses so can't see a problem as I believe this is EF mount.

Yes it will fit fine.
Start working out though, the Bigma's weigh a ton.

Yes it will work, it will report itself to the boy as F5.6 when at full zoom instead of F6.3 so you may need to play with the exposure compensation at full zoom, ie add a stop
