Indeed, I see 2 of them at the moment. And one says "* WITH", but
doesn't say with what. Might be worth a call. Mine came with caps, case,
box, instructions for a bit less than these, but didn't have the KEH
back-up. If anybody does decide to buy one, I have a Tokina screw-in
hood for it that is surplus now that I found the clip-on one. It's model
MH-721, very well made, with a flocked black finish on the inside. It's
smaller and lighter than the clip-on, but doesn't have female screw
threads on the front, so neither filters nor lens cap will attach to it.
That's probably to avoid vignetting with filters. $20 plus shipping.

Another, but even rarer, alternative that solves the speed problem is
the Tokina AT-X 24-40/2.8. Not quite the zoom range of the other 2,
but it's missing on the end I don't care much about, as I'll always
have something covering the 'standard' 50mm area along anyway.
Haven't used it much yet, but it seems optically good and is, of
course, bright in the finder..........
