I haven't tried many EF-M lenses. Only the 14-55 and the 22. I really do like the 22. I was eyeing the 11-22, but never got too serious with the M mount. I have an M50 II which will soon go on sale. It is really compact, but if we get a couple of compact lenses, like the 11-22 to go with the 18-150 the body size difference will not be an issue for me. Usually, it is the lenses that end up taking up most of the space and have most of the weight.
IMHO the 11-22 is the only decent M zoom. To be honest, I haven't tried the EF-M 18-150, but I've been really impressed with the RF version, so maybe I missed something. Lenses like the 22 f2 and 32 f1.4 would be amazing with the R7's IBIS. If sigma were to release an R mount 56 f1.4 I'd be delighted although I'm quite happy with the renewed life of my 40D vintage 60 f2.8 macro. The EF-M 22 f2 goes to 1:2 for close focus, its is small and very light. It would make a great flower and misc accessory lens on the R7 for hiking. Maybe the RF 100-400 at some point. The R7 + 100-400 + 22 + G1X3 would weigh about 5.5 lbs for dayhikes.
