Macro is doable with 4x5 and the right body. You will need a bag bellows and a
lens designed for close focus such as a Ysaron. Also, good front movements
will allow you to do things on film that would otherwise require Photoshop.
Focus gets critical here. Since film sits loosely in holders

Well, if that's what it takes...
It is close up photography after all.

Macro is eminently workable, you just have to want to be doing close ups
of fairly large objects...

I already have 6x7 and 6x8 equipment which I occasionally use.
I will let you know if I start using a large format camera anytime soon.

another thing you have to deal with is exposure compensation when extending
lenses into the macro range. It varies with extension so getting
exposure correct
is a challenge.

I was searching for a proper, locally available 150mm lens (it is not
included in the package) as the standard focal range.
I was thinking that the range of movements might have helped in
selectively increasing the DOF.
If that is not the case even with extreme range of movements I have to

Macro is almost impossible due to extremely limited depth of field. If you
stick to flat objects you might have some success, but with the bellows
extended a great deal, you will have to calculate reprocity failure to get
correct exposures.
Large format lends itself best to things like

based on my experience with large format photography:
first of all, the larger the format, the less DOF. so macro photography
on large
format is very difficult due to narrow DOF.
focusing a 90mm F8 lens isnt that difficult with a lupe, but its
a wide angle and not really suitable for macro.
