Hi Harry, the lens does not come with a lens hood. We do not have a lens hood that is compatible with this model. Thanks_Mitch

Yes. Some time ago someone asked if lens hoods were included. No to the lens hood; yes to the lens cap.

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.

If you buy it new, yeah. It fits American-sold cameras (not sure if there's any difference in fitting a lens to a European or Asian camera anyway), and it has lens covers and a soft case. I can't remember if mine came with a hood or not (I think it did).

Yes it has both the lens hood and warranty, but to be honest this is not my favorite lens. Its very hard to manually focus and that is important in macro. When you focus in and out there is a little "lag" as you change directions making it imprecise. Saw that in other reviews. It also overexposed about 1/2 stop which is not a big problem. Just thought you'd like to know.

Normally it comes with a very nice case but I don't remember if it had a hood or not. Normally i never use the hoods of any of my lenses. This lens is one of the nicest and clearest long lenses I have used and the macro capability is very nice because you don't have to get so close to your subject. Kind regards dm

Yes, the pliable hood comes with a metallic rim that is threaded on both sides of the rim. You simply screw the hood onto the camera lens, then screw the lens cap onto the hood.

No, it does not. I did purchase an inexpensive, but well made, Agfa hood though Amazon.

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 comes with the lens, CL-45 hard case, strap for case, front and rear caps. No hood. Excellent lens.

Most Nikon lenses come with hoods, but this one definitely does. If you are shooting with sunlight the hood is a must.

The lens I received did not come with a hood or case - just the lens in an unmarked cardboard box. It is a great lens for the price, but the packaging/lack or accessories were quite "bare-bones".

It isn't mentioned in the descripton, but it does come with a "tulip" type lens hood.
