Does this have the official Sigma 5 year warranty? Is Buydig an authorized reseller?
Also does anyone know if the lens hood is included? The description only says lens, caps, and case.

This Sigma is decent lens for someone on a very tight budget and wants the 70-300 range, but if you have the funds, go for Tamron 70-300mm f/4-5.6 Di VC USD for $350 AR. Sharper, better built, works...
