How does the "Leica mystique" affect your choice of potato chip?

[Colin Corneau]

I've always been of the mind that "king of bokeh" and pre-ASPH users prefer ripple chips.
However, after spending many sleepless nights considering the high speed capabilities of the M9, I've come to the conclusion that real Leica users prefer unrippled.

Also, how does the X100 factor into all of this?

Where is the poll? Put in a field for Tayto Crisps and Guinness and M6/Summicron.

 

[Sparrow]

Discerning photographers prefer crisps 😀

Depends on the Lemur you use of course...

 

[dcsang]

Ripple, plain, preferably "Ruffles" (aka one of Frito Lay's brands) and I'm a pre-ASPH user all the way... the bokeh on the chips is outstanding...

I prefer threads about lemurs, actually.

Of course, no crisp is complete without a good CLA (crisp lubricating additive, also known as dipping sauce).

And I'd like to think most DSLR shooters prefer Doritos: Tasteless without a whole lot of spice added in the post-processing.

 

[Sonnar Brian]

I would think most Photographers would prefer SunChips.

 

[Roger Hicks]

The ones fried in olive oil - preferably Greek Extra Virgin - are best.

Cheers,

Chips, crisps, ...? Don't forget the focusing fluid for best bokeh:

Chips are like leicas, bet you can't own just one.

Yes, but eight is enough.

I might have to sell one.

I am new to the Leica world with the M9 and I always liked the ripple chips...
Come to think of it, I am kinda liking the kettle fried chips lately...

Colin, you certainly have a chip on your shoulder on this kind of thread 😉

 

[Ducky]

Will, you're just rubbing salt in the wound.

I don't think I will add any more to this thread.
