Is it possible or will the working distance be behind (inside) the lens?
I was thinking sigma 10-20 and ~10mm worth of rings, or possible a 20/24/28 with rings.

I was able to shoot with my Tokina 12-24 and a 12mm tube, but only at 24mm, and the working distance was (I kid you not), less than 2mm. Jordan Steele - http://www.jsteelephotos.com

And if you dont know its ok, I guess its not really that important. I would just like to know if it was possible, I already knew it was a generally bad idea. With a single 12 mm tube, if you're lucky, it will be a WD at maximum magnification of 0 mm.
