I agree about using the EF-M 11-22mm IS STM, even w/o ext tubes (after I noticed the "MACRO" marking on the lens body).

I believe the macro marking on the lens is just to indicate the closest working distance, not that the lens is actually a purpose build macro lens. That being said the 11-22 and 22 both have pretty close minimum working distances and half decent maximum magnification.

I regularly work with ionizing radiation. That probably explains a lot about the post you just read.
