Further, if it is attempted to secure a certain level of brightness at the telephoto end, the burden on the second lens group G2 increases, and it becomes difficult to correct aberrations with a small number of lenses. When the conditional expression (6) is satisfied, the above problem can be prevented.
- conditional expressions (3 ′), (4 ′), and (5 ′) are particularly preferable within the ranges defined by the conditional expressions (3), (4), (5), and (6) described above. ) And (6 ′) are satisfied, the above effect becomes more remarkable.
- the refractive index nd1n of the negative lens (first lens L11) arranged in the first lens group G1 is equal to or lower than the lower limit value of the conditional expression (7), the curvature of the lens (approximate curvature) increases and the curvature of field is increased. And it becomes difficult to correct distortion. On the other hand, if the value exceeds the upper limit, it is difficult to balance astigmatism and lateral chromatic aberration correction, which is not preferable. Since this zoom lens satisfies the conditional expression (7), the above-mentioned problem can be prevented.
- the Abbe number ⁇ d1n of the negative lens (first lens L11) arranged in the first lens group G1 is out of the range of the conditional expression (8), it is difficult to correct lateral chromatic aberration particularly near the wide-angle end. Since this zoom lens satisfies the conditional expression (8), this problem can be prevented.
- the lens curvature (approximate curvature) becomes large. As a result, the amount of aberration generated becomes large.
- the value exceeds the upper limit astigmatism increases, which is not preferable. Since this zoom lens satisfies the conditional expression (9), the above-described problem can be prevented.
- the Abbe number ⁇ d2p of the positive lenses (the third lens L21 and the fifth lens L23) arranged in the second lens group G2 is out of the range of the conditional expression (10), it is difficult to correct axial chromatic aberration.

That is, conditional expression (11) and conditional expression (13) define the refractive index of the first lens L11 and the refractive index of the second lens L12, respectively. Is increased, the curvature of the lens (approximate curvature) is increased, and the first lens group G1 is thickened.
- the two lenses L11 and L12 arranged in the first lens group G1 are made of plastic lenses for the purpose of cost reduction and weight reduction, a material that exceeds the upper limit value of these conditional expressions. This is not preferable because it is difficult to balance correction of astigmatism and lateral chromatic aberration. Since this zoom lens satisfies the conditional expressions (11) and (13), the above problems can be prevented.
- Conditional expression (12) and conditional expression (14) define the Abbe number of the first lens L11 and the Abbe number of the second lens L12, respectively. The difference in Abbe number from the second lens L12 becomes small, and correction of chromatic aberration becomes difficult. If the range of the conditional expression (12) or (14) is exceeded, the Abbe number of the second lens L12 in the other lens (conditional expression (14)) arranged in the first lens group G1 is corrected for chromatic aberration correction.
- the first lens L11 is this “other lens” when it is defined
- the second lens L12 is this “other lens” when the Abbe number of the first lens L11 is defined by the conditional expression (12)) Is also not preferable because it is difficult to correct curvature of field and distortion at the wide-angle end. Since this zoom lens satisfies the conditional expressions (12) and (14), the above problems can be prevented.
- conditional expressions (12 ′) and (14 ′) are satisfied particularly within the ranges of conditional expressions (12) and (14), respectively. Become.
- the zoom lens of the present invention in particular, the second lens group G2, in order from the object side, a third lens L21 having a positive refractive power, a fourth lens L22 having a negative refractive power, and a fifth lens having a positive refractive power.
- a third lens L21 having a positive refractive power in order from the object side, a fourth lens L22 having a negative refractive power, and a fifth lens having a positive refractive power.
- conditional expressions (16 ′), (18 ′), and (20 ′) are satisfied particularly within the ranges of the conditional expressions (16), (18), and (20). Becomes more prominent.
- the zoom lens has a configuration in which the entire second lens group G2 is moved along the optical axis Z during focusing from infinity to a short distance, so that the following effects can be obtained. That is, when the configuration in which the entire first lens group G1 is extended and focused is adopted, the effective diameter of the first lens group G1 or the lens having a large outer diameter needs to be moved. Such a problem can be avoided when moving the entire group G2.

Abstract
La présente invention a pour objet un objectif à focale variable plus économique dont les performances optiques sont satisfaisantes. Un objectif à focale variable d'après la présente invention est essentiellement constitué, dans l'ordre depuis le côté objet, d'un premier groupe de lentilles (G1) ayant une puissance réfractive négative et d'un second groupe de lentilles (G2) ayant une puissance réfractive positive. Une modification du grossissement entraîne une modification de l'espace entre le premier groupe de lentilles (G1) et le second groupe de lentilles (G2). Toutes les lentilles des premier (G1) et second (G2) groupes de lentilles sont en plastique. Les deux groupes sont constitués d'au moins deux lentilles (le premier groupe de lentilles (G1) comportant les lentilles (L11, L12) et le second groupe de lentilles comportant les lentilles (L21, L22, L23)). De plus, soit M2 la quantité de déplacement du second groupe de lentilles (G2) lorsqu'on modifie le grossissement depuis le côté grand-angle vers le côté téléobjectif et ft la distance focale de l'ensemble du système au niveau du côté téléobjectif, l'expression conditionnelle suivante est satisfaite : 0,45 < M2/ft < 0,8.
