Finding the perfect present for Kerri’s birthday was a little harder this year since we are preparing for a 2-year round-the-world trip. The few things that we will be taking with us will need to be small and multipurpose. As much as we would like to bring a lot of different lenses for our cameras, that’s just not going to happen. Since Kerri has an Olympus E-PL1 Micro 4\/3’s camera<\/a> and I shoot a Nikon D7000 DSLR<\/a> it would make sense if Kerri could attach some of my pro quality Nikon lenses to her camera using an adapter. A lot of people love the Lensbaby Tilt Transformer<\/a> and we had found one at a local camera shop a few weeks ago but found it to be a bit difficult to use, but functional. It looked like an okay little adapter, but it cost $249 and is made out of plastic. The Tilt Transformer also comes with the Lensbaby Composer<\/a>, but that costs $349 and the composer lens would probably not get used.\u00a0 So after pouring over online reviews and looking at all of the available options I chose the all metal Kipon Micro 4\/3’s to Nikon lens tilt adapter<\/a> for only $159.95 from Amazon for Kerri’s present.<\/p>\n
