Patent ID: 10095010

Abstract:
A zoom lens includes, in order from object-side, a fixed positive first group including three-or-more lenses, a negative second group including a unit moving toward image-side during zooming toward telephoto-end, a positive third group including a unit moving toward object-side during zooming from wide-end to telephoto-end, a negative fourth group moving during zooming and focusing, and a rear group. Focal lengths of the first group and the zoom lens at wide-end, a movement amount of a unit moving by largest amount during zooming toward telephoto-end in the second group, a largest value of position change between wide-end and telephoto-end of units moving toward an object side during zooming from wide-end to telephoto-end, refractive index for d-line of a positive lens closest to image-side in the first group, and average refractive index for d-line of positive lenses of the first group other than the positive lens are appropriately set.
