Does this lens come with a lens hood or do I have purchase it separately?

Yes. When you buy premium EX lenses they come with lens hood and a case also. They have the sigma rear lens caps too. Not like the plastic things that other brands give you.

Yes. The lens I purchased came with the canon ew83h lens hood and a few other things. The retailer was "get it digital"

The lens does not ship with the hood anywhere in the world that I am aware of - and certainly not here in Asia. The lens hood is not necessary, because macro lenses are only very rarely used shooting into the sun or in the direct line of flash. The optional hood is outrageously expensive.

It does not come with a hood. Generally speaking, lenses of this focal length do not benefit much from hoods, but Canon does have a hood for this lens if you want to look cool. By the way, I LOVE this lens. Not only does it address a host of needs for the amateur photographer, but it has one of the elements (UD glass) in it that make the L series so extraordinary. It is also the best lens I have found for doing video with a 7D in close quarters like a room.

It does not come with a hood. Cannon includes hoods with L-class lenses, only. There are many 3rd party hoods that don't cost much. Tremendous lens. No other zoom lens comes close for a crop body camera. Fablulous all-around, especially for outdoors. Outstanding landscape lens.

Camara ~ Battery ~ Charger ~ USB Connection Cable ~ CD ROM ~ Lens Cap & String ~ Shoulder Strap ~ Operating Instructions (Users' Guide) It does not include a Lens Hood ~ You would have to buy one separately if you wanted one

Yes, there is a hood. It's very good, fits well, positive contact to lock on lens

No, it doesn't. It should be purchased separately. The macro feature in this lens is excellent by the way.

There was a hood included with my sigma 18-250 for my Canon so there is probably a hood with this lens for the Nikon....of course, you can always purchase the hood later if it is not included...

This is odd, I bought my wife a K5 which came with this lens and a hood. It was ordered from Amazon. reading comments someone, somewhere was messed up badly.

The lens included the caps and a cloth case, but I don't believe I received a lens hood. I use a 46mm-37mm step down ring and an Olympus PRF-D37 37mm extension ring with a 37mm Olympus lens cap on my lens. This combination works fine for me.

I have a D3100 kit and no the hood did not come with it. I did purchase one from Amazon after reading on their site that it would fit a D3100. The hood "does not" fit any of my lens.

It comes with a hood and the warranty is one year valid only in the Americas (North, Central and South). I hope you're not buying this for Sony or Pentax though, as the OS is NOT included for such mount.

No, but please note that all lenses can benefit from a hood! Check Amazon's deals for a good price!
