i have gone to france to visit family a few times over the years
and brought a graflex d and it wasn't any more trouble than bringing a leica.
just have your client pay for processing + skans, it really isn't that expensive considering
you're traveling a distance for them ...
otherwise, practice front focusing your sensor camera, or put a dirty, hazy, filter,
or celluloid, or saran wrap, or dried elmer's glue, or a handmade glass scrim, or pantyhose with a cigarette burn
or smokey glass or ??? until you get the look you want
at the aperture you need to shoot at ... it isn't really that hard (to goof around) to try to recreate a look from another camera ..
good luck!
