Some of the rubber screw in hoods are labeled
"28mm F2.8  28mm F3.5  JAPAN     OLYMPUS"
others are only labeled with only the 28mm F2.8.

The metal hood I have is labeled
"3.5/28  JAPAN     OLYMPUS"

Both the metal hoods and rubber hoods are the same diameter and same
length. They are all screw-in designs. The dual label on some of the
rubber hoods suggests that there probably aren't any metal hoods
labeled 2.8/28.

Both the 21mm and 35mm lens hoods came in clamp-on versions. I haven't
seen either the 24mm nor 28mm wide angle hoods in clamp-on versions.
