What's a decent adapter at a decent price?

I have a couple nikon lenses that I'd like to use on my FS100, but don't want to spend too much on an adapater.
I have a Nikkor 55mm f/1.4 and a Nikon 18-105mm DX VR Lens. What would be a good adapter for those?
 
I have the fotodiox, it's not bad, pretty cheap $50/60 but I'm looking for something a litte more robust, I'm thinking metabones might be your best option.
 
I mentioned this in another thread but just for the record. HolyManta.com will have their VND Nikon version out very shortly and I for one will have one in my kit. Looking at the. Canon model and reviews it seems like a winner.
 
A lot of people use the Novaflex. It's machined to rigid tolerances, but some people report that it doesn't click in place properly. I had to send one back for that reason. It gets a little pricey if you want to leave it on individual lenses.
 
Best one I've used on the my FS100 is the Novoflex one. Very well made. The MTF Services one is of the same quality.

If you plan on using Nikon G type lenses then I would go for the Metabones adaptor as they have a unique cam based aperture control. This gives to much more control over the aperture as the throw is much longer.
