Does this lens come in official retail packaging? Does it come with the lens hood and the caps? What about warranty?

No, it does not come in official retail packaging. It does come with lens caps. No hood, it wrapped with several layers of bubble wraps. There is no warranty. I took a chance and it works well. I guess if it arrives OK, it should be OK unless you drop it on the ground or in the water.

Comes in plain white box with two caps and one hood. Not sure about warranty.

Yes it has a lens cap. Like virtually all lenses out there, they all have a cap to protect the front glass from being scratched while not in use. Not to be confused with a lens hood, which it does not come with...

I think ALL cameras come with strap. Get the optional battery holder/vertical grip and get the hand strap for it. As for lens caps, all new lens come with caps and most also come with lens hood. As for the warranty, see what's listed in the "What's in the box" listing.

Yes, the camera come with strap and the lenses have the caps. Not as the warranty is because I live outside the United States

I do not recall, and do not have it at-hand.I can tell you that I have not needed a warranty -- the lens works perfectly and functions as-new.:)

All the lenses include caps and a strap comes standard with the camera purchase it'll be in the box with the camera if I'm not mistaken. The camera comes with a manufacturer warranty, but I purchased and extended warranty from square trade via amazon. The lens come with their own mfg warranty paperwork in their inividual boxes.The package you ordered really has everything you need. You did not go wrong with this purchase!

The hood is permanently attached (and therefore included). It also comes with a deep lens cap that grip onto the petals of the hood.

From Web Offers, I received a DA-L...very deceptive--pictures here show and describe a full DA lens w/hood (also not received). Trying to return it

Yes. The lens was in its original packaging from Canon. I purchased the same item 2 months ago.

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

There is no lens cap shown on this image but it does come with the lens. The cap is specific to this lens as the lens is convex. It also has the side clips which makes it fit nice and tight. It is an important part of this lens assembly and i make sure i have it on when the lens is not in use , to protect it.

yes, front and back lens caps are included. The hood is the only real draw back on the lens. It doesn't fit in any of my bags with the hood attached, I end up stowing it separately in a side pocket. VERY minor problem to have on such a fine lens.
