KEH has an EX+ for about $210. Usually their BGN lenes are actually most others EXC, and $210. is pretty high, but if you need it soon a bird in the hand ... .

Awesome lens, good luck!

FWIW, one hood option is from the 200/4 Tak if you prefer the screw-in variety.

I pair mine with an Op-Tech "Hood Hat" and leave it on the lens most of the time (one less thing to faff about with in the field.) Otherwise, the lens paired with a close-up filter makes for a passable macro option as well--I've got a 58mm Canon 500D that provides great results and takes up little room in the bag.
