std::find_if map to object

Should I use example 1 or example 2 for map pointer from find_if to object Which one is the best?

struct test {
 INT id
}

std::vector<std::shared_ptr<test>> vec;

int ID = 75;

auto obj = std::find_if(vec.begin(), vec.end(), [&ID](std::shared_ptr<test>& r){
 return r->id == ID;
});

if ( obj != vec.end() ) {
 // example 1
 std::shared_ptr<test> example1 = (*obj);

 // example 2 by reference
 std::shared_ptr<test>& example2 = (*obj);
}

If you will not modify vec between the call to find_if and the usage of the shared_ptr, then take a reference to the element as in example2 to avoid unnecessary adjustments to the reference count. If you cannot be sure that this is the case, then copy the shared_ptr by value, as in example.
