Abstract
A zoom lens in which a distance between adjacent lens units changes during zooming includes in order from an object side to an image side a first lens unit fixed during zooming and having positive refractive power, three or more moving lens units movable during zooming, and a final lens unit fixed during zooming and having positive refractive power. At least part of the first lens unit moves during focusing. At least one of a moving lens unit closest to an image plane among the three or more moving lens units and the final lens unit includes a first lens having positive refractive power. A predetermined condition is satisfied.
Claims16
A zoom lens in which a distance between adjacent lens units changes during zooming, the zoom lens comprising, in order from an object side to an image side:
- a first lens unit fixed during zooming and having positive refractive power;
- three or more moving lens units movable during zooming;
- and
- a final lens unit fixed during zooming and having positive refractive power,
- wherein at least part of the first lens unit moves during focusing,
- wherein at least one of a moving lens unit closest to an image plane among the three or more moving lens units and the final lens unit includes a first lens having positive refractive power, and
- wherein the following inequalities are satisfied:
- 1.60≤ngp≤1.73
- 4.1×10−6≤dndTp≤12.0×10−6
- 1.90≤ngp+0.0046×vgp
- 0.3≤dr/fr≤1.5
- where ngp is a refractive index of the first lens for d-line, vgp is an Abbe number of the first lens based on the d-line, dndTp is a temperature coefficient of the refractive index of the first lens for the d-line from 20° C. to 40° C., dr is a distance on an optical axis from a lens surface closest to an object to a lens surface closest to the image plane in the final lens unit, and fr is a focal length of the final lens unit.
