Be careful, if you 'cook' to a very low temp, particularly with fatty/marbled meats. You need to get the meat warm enough to melt the fat or you can end up with a weird waxy mouth feel.

Obviously this can be cured when finishing under high heat, I prefer to run the sous vide just about where you did (maybe even a little warmer to get the fat melted into the meat) and very quickly sear.

If fillet is your choice...the redder the better!
