Anyone with the Zeiss 15/2.8 been game enough to cut the hood off yet?

Taking the hood off is pretty simple, although you'll want a big rubber stopper or something similar. I posted a how-to here:

It takes 12 minutes to take it off, 10 of which is waiting for a bit of alcohol to loosen the glue around the makeup ring.

You'll have to use the direct link - it's not of too much general interest so it won't show up from the main blog page.
