Okay, what’s your beef...

My lunch yesterday at a local restaurant featured an Italian beef sandwich on a fresh hoagie roll, onion rings, ice tea and a generous slice of the restaurant’s signature carrot cake. Very tasty.

This photo was taken with a Fujifilm X100F using the camera’s Pro Neg Standard film simulation (patterned after Fuji’s NPS 160 print film) which produces minimal contrast and soft, muted colors, along with gently enhanced skin tones.
Back in the day, NPS 160 was popular with many portrait and wedding photographers.

The image was recorded as a JPEG file. Aperture Priority Mode. Settings: 1/42 sec, f/4, ISO 1600.
Exposure Compensation: None. Processed in Lightroom v5.7 on my MacBook Pro laptop and Nik mobile for iPad.

Interesting composition! Was Fuji NPS 160 particularly good for food pictures? Italian beef would seem to call for Ferrania.

Nice shot... but making me hungry at 1:00 am is just mean.

After FILM Ferrania was acquired by 3M in 1964, its ownership structure changed four times before finally winding up as a division of Gruppo Messina, a shipping company, who ceased photographic operations in 2009. FILM Ferrania was re-founded in 2013 to create a new film manufacturing base amidst apparently renewed interest in film photography.
Fuji has not chosen to offer a Ferrania simulation at this time, but as to the effectiveness of NPS’ neutral color palate for digital food photography, judge for yourself, Barb.🤔

I apologize, alx. It was a darn good sandwich and the carrot cake wasn’t bad, either.
