There was a list member that had the Tokina 300/2.8. I don't remember his
comments though (several years ago). The KEH Tokina doesn't say anything
about including a hood. Tokina was/is pretty good at selling parts though.
I've seen very nice Tamron 300/2.8 lenses sell well below $700. Don't get
the black / dark charcoal grey Tamron 300/2.8. It won't mount an Olympus
1.4X TC. The hood also mounts different from the green one

KEH has the Tokina version of this lens right now. It's not as well
thought of/sought after as the Tamron? Just curious how it compares if
anyone has lived with both.

Well, of course I've got the 300/2.8. It's one of the green ones,
probably looks a lot like yours.
You were talking about the Tamron, weren't you?
