Not sure if it's possible to find other manufacturer lenses that would work with a Nikon body with an adapter (Olympus, etc), but it's neither here nor there right now. I don't see myself investing in a tilt-shift or any other specialty lens right away, and for the time being I have prime lenses that suit my purposes (28mm, 50mm, 105mm and 165mm). Shooting architecture with the 28mm meant having to photomerge frames together when shooting tight spaces and then having to correct lens and perspective distortion after the fact, but I got a 95 on my final project, so it worked out.
