Claims1
A lens system for forming a photographic image, the lens system comprising:
- a turning optic;
- and
- a plurality of lenses, the plurality of lenses comprising a first movable lens group, a second movable lens group, and a third movable lens group, arranged successively from an object side of the lens system to an image side of the lens system;
- wherein the first movable lens group comprises one lens and has a first positive refractive power, the second movable lens group comprises four lenses and has a second positive refractive power, and the third lens group comprises four lenses and has a third positive refractive power;
- wherein in a first position of the first movable lens group, the second movable lens group, and the third movable lens group, the lens system operates in a main mode having a first field of view;
- and
- wherein in a second position of the first movable lens group, the second movable lens group, and the third movable lens group, the lens system operates in an ultra-wide mode having a second field of view greater than the first field of view.
