Put it on a macro/slide copy bellows. Black gaffer's tape will work well. Open the shutter. Focus & shoot. A 6" bellows draw is suitable for a 6" lens @ infinity. So you could use a classic Wollensak 6 1/4" Series IIIA 8x10 lens. Or any modern Rodenstock Geronar triplet. Or any cheap 127 or 135 lens from a Graphic.
