Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model is a super wide-angle zoom lens with a zoom ratio exceeding 7 times and a wide-angle end field of view exceeding 90 degrees, which can be widely used in digital camera lenses, video camera lenses, and especially in the fields of broadcast-grade zoom lenses for relays. Background Art

[0002] At present, the image field of broadcast-grade super zoom lenses used for broadcasting is mostly a 2 / 3-inch target surface. Although the lens is compact and has a high zoom ratio, it is difficult to achieve high pixel and high sensitivity requirements due to the small target surface of the image sensor, especially the large target surface and ultra-high-definition 8k sensors launched in recent years, with target surface sizes mostly 1.25 inches and S35 specification target surfaces. For example, the well-known Japanese Patent No. 2015-18083 has a structure that starts from the object side, and when zooming, the first group is fixed with positive refractive power, and the second group with negative refractive power, the third group with negative refractive power, the fourth group with negative refractive power, and the fifth group with fixed positive refractive power are moved separately. When the object moves from infinity to close distance, the focusing group is the middle part of the first group, which moves toward the image plane for focusing. When the imaging diameter meets the S35 specification, the zoom ratio is about 7x, but the field of view is less than 80 degrees, and the field of view at the wide-angle end is insufficient. When the image field diameter only meets the needs of a 2 / 3-inch sensor, although the magnification can reach more than 10x and the market angle can reach more than 90 degrees, the frame is too small to meet the current S35 specification sensor requirements. If the geometry is enlarged to the S35 specification requirements, the lens will be very large and bulky, making it difficult to be practical.

[0003] There is also the well-known Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2020-160264, which has a structure that, starting from the object side, when zooming, the first group of positive refractive power and the fifth group of positive refractive power are fixed, and the second group of negative refractive power, the third lens group of positive refractive power, and the fourth group of positive refractive power are moved respectively; when the object moves from infinity to close distance, the focusing group is the middle part of the first group of positive refractive power, which moves toward the image plane to focus. It can be seen from the embodiments that the zoom ratio is about 3 to 4 times, and the field of view at the wide-angle end is about 80 degrees. Although the image field can cover the full frame and the target surface diameter reaches more than 43mm, the volume is very large, and it cannot meet the high-magnification zoom requirements of more than 90 degrees at the wide-angle end and the zoom ratio cannot reach more than 7 times.

[0004] In summary, some currently known wide-angle zoom lenses, while achieving a zoom ratio of 7x or greater, a wide-angle field of view of 90 degrees or greater, and an image field diameter that meets the requirements of the S35 format, would be extremely bulky, resulting in high manufacturing costs and difficulties, making them difficult to mass-produce and popularize. It is difficult to achieve a zoom ratio of 7x or greater, and a wide-angle field of view of 90 degrees or greater, while meeting the requirements of the S35 image field. If this were achieved, the lens would also become extremely bulky, making it impossible to achieve low-cost mass production. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the above-mentioned known zoom lenses, the utility model provides a super wide-angle zoom lens solution with reasonable structure, high performance, small size and low cost, which can achieve a zoom ratio of more than 7 times, while the field of view at the wide-angle end is greater than 90 degrees, and the frame diameter meets the sensor specification requirements of the S35 target surface.

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose of the utility model, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] The utility model provides a high-magnification wide-angle zoom lens, which comprises, from the object side to the image side, a first lens group G1 with positive refractive power, a second lens group G2 with negative refractive power, a third lens group G3 with negative refractive power, a fourth lens group G4 with positive refractive power, a fifth lens group G5 with positive refractive power, and a sixth lens group G6 with negative refractive power;

[0008] The aperture Stop is set between the third lens group G3 and the fourth lens group G4;

[0009] The first lens group G1 and the sixth lens group G6 are fixed, and the second lens group G2, the third lens group G3, the fourth lens group G4 and the fifth lens group G5 are movable to achieve zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end.

[0010] Further technology of this utility model:

[0011] Preferably, the first lens group G1 is composed of three negative lenses and one positive lens forming a front group G1a with negative refractive power, two positive and negative cemented lenses forming a middle group G1b with positive refractive power, and a rear group G1c with positive refractive power; when the object moves from infinity to a close distance, the positive refractive power middle group G1b of the first lens group G1 moves from the object side to the image side to achieve focusing, and the conditions (1), (2), (3), (4) and (5) are satisfied;

[0012] 0.6 ≤ | F1 a / F1 |≤1.5 (1)

[0013] 1.5 ≤ |F1 b / Ft | ≤3 (2)

[0014] 0.3 ≤ |WI / F2| ≤0.8 (3)

[0015] 4 ≤ WL / F1 ≤12 (4)

[0016] 2.5 ≤ | F1 a / Fw |≤5 (5)

[0017] in,

[0018] F1a: focal length of the front lens group G1a of the first lens group G1;

[0019] F1b: focal length of the middle lens group G1b of the first lens group G1;

[0020] F1: focal length of the first lens group G1;

[0021] F2: focal length of the first lens group G2;

[0022] Ft: The focal length of the telephoto end of the optical system at infinity;

[0023] Fw: focal length of the entire optical system at the wide-angle end at infinity;

[0024] WL: optical system length, the distance from the first surface on the object side to the image plane;

[0025] WI: The maximum paraxial image height at the wide-angle end at infinity, WI = Fw × tanωw; where ωw is the half field of view at the wide-angle end.

[0026] If the upper limit of conditional expression (1) of 0.6 ≤ |F1 a / F1| ≤ 1.5 is exceeded, the refractive power of the middle group G1b of the first lens group G1 is too weak, making it difficult to achieve the requirement of a field of view greater than 90 degrees. If the requirement of an ultra-wide-angle field of view of 90 degrees is to be achieved, the volume of the first lens group G1 will become very large, making it difficult to achieve the goal of miniaturization. If the lower limit of conditional expression (1) is exceeded, although the wide-angle field of view of 90 degrees can be achieved while also achieving miniaturization, the refractive power of the front group G1a is too strong, making it difficult to properly correct aberrations such as spherical aberration, marginal coma, and optical distortion, making it very difficult to achieve high performance requirements.

[0027] If the upper limit of conditional expression (2) 1.5 ≤ |F1 b / Ft| ≤ 3 is exceeded, the refractive power of the middle group G1b of the first lens group G1 will be very weak. When focusing at close range, the movement of the middle group G1b will be large, making it difficult to achieve close-range focusing. If the lower limit of conditional expression (2) is exceeded, the refractive power of the middle group G1b will be very strong. Although close-range focusing can be easily achieved, the excessive refractive power of the middle group G1b will make it difficult to effectively correct various aberrations, making it very difficult to achieve high performance.

[0028] If the upper limit of conditional expression (3) of 0.3 ≤ |WI / F2| ≤ 0.8 is exceeded, the refractive power of the second lens group G2 will be very weak. If a zoom ratio of 7x or greater is achieved, the movement S2 of the second lens group G2 will become very large, making miniaturization very difficult. If the lower limit of conditional expression (3) is exceeded, the refractive power of the second lens group G2 will be very strong. Although this is beneficial for miniaturization, the excessive refractive power will make it difficult to effectively correct aberrations such as marginal coma, spherical aberration, and optical distortion, making it very difficult to achieve high performance.

[0029] If the upper limit of the conditional expression (4) 4≤WL / F1≤12 is exceeded, the refractive power of the first lens group G1 is too strong. Although it is very beneficial for miniaturization design, it is difficult to correct aberrations such as spherical aberration and dispersion because the refractive power is too strong, and it becomes very difficult to achieve high performance. If the lower limit of the conditional expression (4) is exceeded, although good aberration correction can be achieved and high performance requirements can be achieved, the refractive power of the corresponding second lens group will also become weak because the refractive power of the first lens group G1 is too weak. It is difficult to achieve a zoom ratio of more than 7 times while achieving miniaturization. Therefore, it is difficult to achieve the goal of high-magnification zoom. If a magnification of more than 7 times is achieved, the volume will become very large.

[0030] If the upper limit of conditional expression (5) 2.5≤|F1 a / Fw|≤5 is exceeded, the refractive power of the front group G1a of the first lens group G1 is too weak, and it is difficult to achieve the requirement of a field of view of more than 90 degrees at the wide-angle end. If the lower limit of conditional expression (5) is exceeded, the refractive power of the front group G1a of the first lens group G1 is very strong. Although it is easy to achieve the requirement of a field of view of more than 90 degrees at the wide-angle end, due to the too strong refractive power of the first lens group G1a, it will be difficult to correct various aberrations such as marginal dispersion, marginal coma, and optical distortion, thereby making it very difficult to achieve high performance.

[0031] Preferably, when the third group G3 moves from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end, the moving direction is reversed midway, forming a "U"-shaped moving trajectory, and satisfying conditional formula (6);

[0032] 5≤(S2+S3+S4+S5) / WI ≤ 8 (6)

[0033] in,

[0034] S2: The total movement of the second lens group G2 when zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end;

[0035] S3: The total movement of the third lens group G3 when zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end;

[0036] S4: The total movement of the fourth lens group G4 when zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end;

[0037] S5: The total movement of the fifth lens group G5 when zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end.

[0038] If the upper limit of conditional expression (6) 5 ≤ (S2 + S3 + S4 + S5) / WI ≤ 8 is exceeded, the sum of the movement amounts of each group is too large. Although it is easy to achieve a zoom ratio of 7x or more, the entire optical system will be bulky and heavy, and its practicality will be poor. If the lower limit of conditional expression (6) is exceeded, although the design requirements for miniaturization can be easily achieved, the movement amount of the moving group is too small, making it difficult to achieve a high zoom ratio of 7x or more.

[0039] Preferably, the sixth lens group G6 is divided into two parts, a front part G6a with negative refractive power and a rear part G6b with positive refractive power, and the rear part G6b is moved to adjust the length of the back focal length BF of the optical system, and the condition (7) is satisfied.

[0040] 2≤F6b / BF ≤ 15 (7)

[0041] in,

[0042] F6b: focal length of the rear portion G6b of the sixth lens group G6.

[0043] If the upper limit of conditional expression (7) 2 ≤ F6b / BF ≤ 15 is exceeded, the refractive power of the rear portion G6b of the sixth lens group is too weak. When adjusting the back focal length BF, the movement becomes very large, and the effect is not obvious. If the lower limit of conditional expression (7) is exceeded, the refractive power of the sixth lens group G6b is too strong. When adjusting the back focal length BF, although the movement is small, it is too sensitive, resulting in poor adjustment accuracy. At the same time, because the refractive power of the rear portion G6b is too strong, performance is likely to deteriorate.

[0044] The utility model also provides a digital camera with the high-magnification wide-angle zoom lens.
