Which hasselblad tube for table-top photography?

[paul_klingaman]

I'm about to embark upon a project of shooting mostly fruit, or

similar sized objects in studio environment (table top).

 

Which tube(s) would you recommend for this type of work? I'd like

the objects to take up probably 1/4 to 1/8 of the frame. I'd like to

do this without having to buy additional lenses or macro bellows.

I've already got the 55mm tube, but it's waaay too long for this kind

of work. The lenses I've got available are 80 and 150.

 

I realize the right tool for this job is a 4x5 camera, but as I said

I'd like to use what's available to me (501c, 80, 50).

 

Thanks for your suggestions in advance.
