Dutchie did you ever get that X-T4? I picked up an X100V couple weeks ago, but yet to use it on any food pics. My lighting and prep not worth it compared to your masterpieces.

My humble entry. Mahi-Mahi. Black pepper, sea salt, and Tony’s. In the cast iron. Olive oil in pan. SF set at 420. Took about 3-5 minutes on each side. Asparagus in foiled cookie sheet along side. Made a sauce with diced onion, garlic, pepper, soy sauce, chicken broth, and heavy cream. Sauce was incredible. Chicken broth steamed rice.

You’d probably win more prizes due to the artistic aspect of the old style photos.

Absolutely I was hoping it would take Dutchie a couple of weeks to get the image developed and then he has to upload it....
