I will post some more examples.

>>4490980thank you
>>4490982What is it about this image (the meat) that gives it a very recognizable late 80's early 90's feel ?
>>4490984Maybe the more natural looking warm soft light without the lifted shadows common in modern product photography.
I'm thinking film, medium format and incandescent light
>>4490978A studio product photo. The result of much planning and position, a lot of very good lighting equipment placed intentionally and probably done by someone experienced, and what is likely a full frame digital camera using a short-telephoto prime lens with a moderately wide aperture in-use.Emphasis on the lighting. If this was lit half-assedly or was just a photo using direct-flash or natural lighting it would look far, far worse than it does.I don't see anything that gives it away as film.It's also probably photoshopped a fair bit, as it is a product shot.
OP you should check out the 1989 edition of the BH&G cookbook

>>4491182I wouldn't be surprised if it's large format, for studio shots that was the norm. Crazy how digital just wrecked everything.
>>4492532You could always use a technical camera with a 120 back, but I don't really see the point when doing product photography like this unless you really needed the additional DoF that smaller formats afford you.
