I just picked up a Wollensak 3 1/2" (90mm) f/4.5 Graphic Raptar and tried it on the 8x10. The lens is about the size of a half dollar coin.
Of course, it does not cover at infinity, but it covers 8x10 with movements and is sharp from corner to corner if you are photographing something about the size of a tube of chapstick. With 30" of bellows, I could get a tiny sugar ant to fill the whole 8x10 frame.
Anyone interested in doing extreme macro work, this lens might be a good idea. They sell for dirt cheep on Ebay. They are also a barrel lens but was too small to fit into a copal 0 hole.
All the best,
