[0010] Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. First, the features of the zoom lens of the present invention will be described in accordance with each conditional expression. In order to achieve a wide angle of view, a high zoom ratio, a small size and light weight, and high optical performance over the entire zoom range, the refractive power of the first lens group and the movement amount of the lens groups that move during zooming are specified for the zoom lens of the present invention.

[0011] The zoom lens of the present invention has, in order from the object side to the image side, a first lens group with positive refractive power that does not move for zooming, at least one lens group with negative refractive power that moves to the image side when zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end, and at least two lens groups with positive refractive power that move to the object side when zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end. The first lens group L1 is composed of an eleventh lens group L11 that does not move during focusing, and a twelfth lens group L12 with positive refractive power that moves during focusing from the infinity side to the close range side. Among at least one lens group having negative refractive power that moves toward the image side during zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end, the lens group that moves the greatest amount is defined as the Nth lens group, and among at least two lens groups having positive refractive power that move toward the object side, the lens group that moves the greatest amount is defined as the Pth lens group, and the focal length of the first lens group is f1, the focal length at the wide-angle end is fw, the focal length at the telephoto end is ft, and the differences in positions of the Nth lens group and the Pth lens group from the image plane on the optical axis at the wide-angle end and the telephoto end are mn and mp, respectively. 4.35 <ft / f1<6.00 ···(1) 1.0<|mn / mp|<2.0 (2) 0.02 <fw / f1<0.05 ···(3) With this configuration, the zoom lens of the present invention has an angle of view at the wide-angle end of about 60 to 70 degrees, an angle of view at the telephoto end of about 0.4 to 0.7 degrees, a zoom ratio of about 130 to 160, and is small, lightweight, and capable of achieving high optical performance.

[0012] Formula (1) specifies the ratio of the focal length at the telephoto end to the focal length of the first lens group. Formula (2) specifies the ratio of the amount of movement of the lens group with negative refractive power moving toward the image side and the lens group with positive refractive power moving toward the object side when zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end. Formulas (1) and (2) are specified to achieve a high zoom ratio while simultaneously achieving a compact zoom lens and correcting axial chromatic aberration. If the upper limit condition of formula (1) is not satisfied, it is advantageous for the compactness of the zoom lens, but the magnification rate of the aberration generated in the first lens group increases, making it difficult to satisfactorily correct the optical performance at the telephoto end, particularly the axial chromatic aberration. Conversely, if the lower limit condition of formula (1) is not satisfied, the refractive power of the first lens group becomes weak, making it difficult to achieve both a high zoom ratio and a compact zoom lens.

[0013] If the upper limit condition of equation (2) is not met, the amount of movement of the Nth lens group, which has negative refractive power, becomes large, so that the lateral magnification of the Nth lens group at the telephoto end becomes large, and the longitudinal chromatic aberration generated by the Nth lens group becomes large. This makes it difficult to satisfactorily correct the optical performance at the telephoto end, particularly the longitudinal chromatic aberration. Conversely, if the lower limit condition of equation (2) is not met, the amount of movement of the Nth lens group, which is the main zoom group, becomes small, so that the sum of the amounts of movement of the Nth lens group and the Pth lens group becomes large, making it difficult to miniaturize the zoom lens.

[0014] Formula (3) specifies the ratio of the focal length at the wide-angle end to the focal length of the first lens group. The upper and lower limit conditions of formula (3) are specified in order to reduce the size of the zoom lens and to provide good correction for peripheral performance at the wide-angle end. If the upper limit condition of formula (3) is not satisfied, the refractive power of the first lens group will be too strong, making it difficult to correct curvature of field and distortion at the wide-angle end. Conversely, if the lower limit condition of formula (3) is not satisfied, the refractive power of the first lens group will be too weak, making it difficult to achieve both a high zoom ratio and a compact zoom lens. More preferably, the formulas (1), (2), and (3) are set as follows: 4.35 <ft / f1<5.80 ···(1a) 1.40<|mn / mp|<1.98 (2a) 0.025 <fw / f1<0.040 ···(3a)

[0015] In a further aspect of the zoom lens of the present invention, when a lens group that moves toward the image side during zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end is the Vth lens group, and the composite lateral magnifications of the Vth lens group at the wide-angle end and the telephoto end are βvw and βvt, respectively,

[0016] 2.0<(βvt / βvw) 2 ×(fw / ft)<5.0 (4) The conditional expressions are satisfied. Expression (4) specifies the ratio of the composite lateral magnification (zooming contribution) of the Vth lens group at the wide-angle end and the telephoto end to the zooming contribution of the other lens groups, and by satisfying the range of expression (4), a high zoom ratio is achieved while the zoom lens is compact and the axial chromatic aberration is corrected. If the upper limit condition of expression (4) is not satisfied, the composite lateral magnification of the Vth lens group at the telephoto end becomes large, and the axial chromatic aberration generated in the Vth lens group becomes large. This makes it difficult to satisfactorily correct the optical performance at the telephoto end, particularly the axial chromatic aberration. Conversely, if the lower limit condition of expression (4) is not satisfied, the zooming contribution of the Vth lens group becomes small, and the amount of movement of the lens groups other than the Vth lens group becomes large, making it difficult to achieve both a high zoom ratio and a compact zoom lens. More preferably, expression (4) is set as follows. 2.5<(βvt / βvw) 2 ×(fw / ft)<4.2 (4a)

[0017] In a further aspect of the zoom lens of the present invention, the lens group that moves toward the object side during zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end is the C lens group, and the V lens group passes through a point (state) where the composite lateral magnification is -1x during zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end. When the composite lateral magnification of the C lens group at a zoom position fz where the composite lateral magnification of the V lens group is -1x is βcfz, -1.00<βcfz<-0.65 (5) The conditional expressions below are satisfied. Expression (5) is stipulated in order to reduce the size of the Cth lens group and to satisfactorily correct the optical performance at the intermediate zoom position and the telephoto end. If the upper limit condition of expression (5) is not satisfied, the Cth lens group will be located on the object side at the zoom position fz, so that the lens diameter of the Cth lens group will be large, making it difficult to reduce the size of the zoom lens. Conversely, if the lower limit condition of expression (5) is not satisfied, the amount of movement of the Cth lens group from the zoom position fz to the telephoto end will be large, making it difficult to satisfactorily correct the variation in spherical aberration from the intermediate zoom position to the telephoto end. More preferably, expression (5) is set as follows: -0.9<βcfz<-0.7 (5a)

[0018] In a further aspect of the zoom lens of the present invention, when the lens group that moves toward the object side during zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end is the C lens group, the V lens group passes through a point where the composite lateral magnification is -1x during zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end, and at zoom position fz where the composite lateral magnification of the V lens group is -1x, the composite lateral magnification of the C lens group simultaneously becomes -1x.

[0019] In a further embodiment of the zoom lens of the present invention, the Cth lens group is composed of, in order from the object side to the image side, a P1 lens group having a positive refractive power and a P2 lens group having a positive refractive power. When the distances between adjacent optical surfaces on the optical axis of the P1 lens group and the P2 lens group at the wide-angle end and the telephoto end are dw and dt, respectively, 0.1 <dt / dw<2.0 ···(6) The conditional expressions below are satisfied. Here, the distances dw and dt between the P1 lens group and the P2 lens group at the wide-angle end and the telephoto end are the distances on the optical axis between the surface of the P1 lens group closest to the image side and the surface of the P2 lens group closest to the object side at the wide-angle end and the telephoto end, respectively. The expression (6) is stipulated in order to achieve a high zoom ratio while simultaneously making the zoom lens compact and correcting axial chromatic aberration. If the upper limit condition of the expression (6) is not satisfied, the distance between the P1 lens group and the P2 lens group at the telephoto end will be widened, and the zoom load of the V lens group will be increased. Therefore, the total amount of movement of the V lens group and the C lens group will be small, but the lateral magnification of the N lens group at the telephoto end will be large, and the axial chromatic aberration generated by the N lens group will be large. Conversely, if the lower limit condition of expression (6) is not satisfied, the distance between the P1 lens group and the P2 lens group at the wide-angle end becomes large, making it difficult to satisfactorily correct the fluctuation of axial chromatic aberration from the wide-angle end to the intermediate zoom position. 0.1 <dt / dw<1.5 ···(6a)

[0020] In a further aspect of the zoom lens of the present invention, when a lens group that moves toward the image side during zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end is the Vth lens group, and a composite focal length of the Vth lens group at the wide-angle end is fvw, -15.0 <f1 / fvw<-8.0 ···(7) The following conditional expressions are satisfied. Expression (7) is stipulated in order to achieve both compactness of the zoom lens and aberration correction throughout the entire zoom range. If the upper limit condition of expression (7) is not satisfied, the refractive power of the Vth lens group will be weak, making it difficult to compact the zoom lens. Conversely, if the lower limit condition of expression (7) is not satisfied, the refractive power of the Vth lens group will be strong, making it difficult to satisfactorily correct aberrations, particularly from the middle to the telephoto end of zooming. It is more preferable to set expression (7) as follows: -13.0 <f1 / fvw<-9.5 ···(7a)

[0021] In a further aspect of the zoom lens of the present invention, when the lens group that moves toward the image side during zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end is the V lens group, and the lens group that moves toward the object side is the C lens group, and when the composite focal lengths of the V lens group and the C lens group at the wide-angle end are fvw and fcw, respectively, -0.50 <fvw / fcw<-0.15 ···(8) The conditional expressions below are satisfied. Expression (8) is stipulated in order to achieve both compactness of the zoom lens and aberration correction throughout the entire zoom range. If the upper limit condition of expression (8) is not satisfied, the refractive power of the Cth lens group will be weak, so that the amount of movement of the Cth lens group will be large, making it difficult to compact the zoom lens. Conversely, if the lower limit condition of expression (8) is not satisfied, the refractive power of the Cth lens group will be strong, making it difficult to satisfactorily correct aberrations in the middle of zooming. It is more preferable to set expression (8) as follows: -0.4 <fvw / fcw<-0.2 ···(8a)

[0022] In another embodiment of the zoom lens of the present invention, the lens closest to the object side in the first lens group is a biconcave lens. By arranging a biconcave lens closest to the object side in the first lens group, it is possible to push the image side principal point of the first lens group toward the image side. This makes it possible to suppress an increase in the lens diameter of the eleventh lens group that accompanies a wider angle of view, which is advantageous for making the zoom lens more compact.

[0023] In a further aspect of the zoom lens of the present invention, when the focal length of the lens in the first lens group closest to the object side is f1n and the d-line reference Abbe number is ν1n, -1.65 <f1n / f1<-1.10 ···(9) 37<ν1n<48 (10) The following conditional expressions are satisfied. Expression (9) specifies the ratio of the focal length of the 1n lens, which is the lens in the 1st lens group closest to the object, to the 1st lens group. Expression (10) specifies the Abbe number of the 1n lens, which is the lens in the 11th lens group closest to the object. The conditions of expressions (9) and (10) are specified in order to achieve a wide angle of view, a high zoom ratio, and a compact size of the zoom lens while satisfactorily correcting chromatic aberration at the telephoto end. If the upper limit of expression (9) is not satisfied, the refractive power of the 1n lens will be strong relative to the 1st lens group, and the high-order aberration of the spherical aberration at the telephoto end will increase, making it difficult to achieve good optical performance. Conversely, if the lower limit of expression (9) is not satisfied, the refractive power of the 1n lens will be weak relative to the 1st lens group, making it difficult to compact the zoom lens. Furthermore, if the refractive power of the 1n lens is weak, the correction effect of the chromatic aberration occurring in the positive lens constituting the first lens group is weak, and the correction of the chromatic aberration at the telephoto end is insufficient. If the upper limit of the formula (10) is not satisfied, the difference in the Abbe number between the positive lens and the negative lens constituting the first lens group is small, and the refractive power of each lens constituting the first lens group is strong. As a result, the high-order aberration of the spherical aberration at the telephoto end increases, and it becomes difficult to achieve good optical performance. Conversely, if the condition of the lower limit of the formula (10) is not satisfied, the difference in the Abbe number between the positive lens and the negative lens constituting the first lens group is large, and the refractive power of the 1n lens is weak. Therefore, the correction effect of the chromatic aberration occurring in the positive lens constituting the first lens group is weak, and the correction of the chromatic aberration at the telephoto end is insufficient. More preferably, the formula (9) is set as follows. -1.63 <f1n / f1<-1.15 ···(9a)

[0024] In a further aspect of the zoom lens of the present invention, when the average Abbe number based on the d-line of the positive lenses constituting the first lens group is denoted by νpave, 80<νpave<100 (11) The conditional expressions (11) are stipulated in order to achieve correction of axial chromatic aberration at the telephoto end and high optical performance. If the upper limit of the expression (11) is not satisfied, it is difficult to manufacture a low-dispersion glass material. Conversely, if the lower limit of the expression (11) is not satisfied, the difference in Abbe number between the positive lens and the negative lens constituting the first lens group becomes small, and the refractive power of each lens constituting the first lens group becomes strong. As a result, the higher-order aberration of the spherical aberration at the telephoto end increases, making it difficult to achieve good optical performance. More preferably, the expression (11) is set as follows: 87<νpave<97...(11a)

[0025] In a further aspect of the zoom lens of the present invention, when the focal length at the wide-angle end is fw and the focal length at the telephoto end is ft, 125 <ft / fw<200 ···(12) The following conditional expressions are satisfied.

[0026] Furthermore, the image pickup apparatus of the present invention is characterized by having the zoom lens of each embodiment and a solid-state image pickup device having a predetermined effective image pickup range for receiving an image formed by the zoom lens.

[0027] It is also possible to protect the frontmost optical surface of the zoom lens of the present invention by attaching a protective filter and a lens equivalent to the protective filter adjacent to the object side of the zoom lens of the present invention, i.e., the object side of the first lens group. By arranging a biconcave lens closest to the object side of the first lens group, the image side principal point of the first lens group is pushed toward the image side, and the increase in the lens diameter of the 11th lens group due to the widening of the angle of view is suppressed, thereby making the zoom lens more compact. Therefore, when the focal length of the first lens group is f1 and the focal length of the 1nth lens closest to the object side of the first lens group is f1n, |f1 / f1n|>0.05 (13) When the protection filter and a lens equivalent to the protection filter attached adjacent to the object side of the zoom lens are considered to be included in the first lens group and the formula (13) is evaluated, if the formula (13) is not satisfied, the attachment is not considered to be included in the first lens group, i.e., the zoom lens of the present invention.

[0028] The specific configuration of the zoom lens of the present invention will be described below starting from the features of the lens configurations of Numerical Examples 1 to 7 corresponding to Examples 1 to 7. EXAMPLES

[0029] FIG. 1 is a lens cross-sectional view of a zoom lens according to embodiment 1 (numerical embodiment 1) of the present invention, when the lens is focused on infinity at the wide-angle end. In FIG. 2, (a) shows a longitudinal aberration diagram of the wide-angle end of numerical embodiment 1, (b) shows a focal length of 220.03 mm of numerical embodiment 1, and (c) shows a longitudinal aberration diagram of the telephoto end of numerical embodiment 1. All of the aberration diagrams are longitudinal aberration diagrams when the lens is focused on infinity. The focal length values ​​are values ​​when the numerical embodiments described later are expressed in mm. This is the same for all of the numerical embodiments described below.

[0030] In FIG. 1, in order from the object side to the image side, the first lens group L1 has a positive refractive power for focusing. Furthermore, when zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end, the second lens group L2 has a negative refractive power for zooming, which moves toward the image side, and the third lens group L3 has a positive refractive power, which moves toward the object side. Furthermore, the fourth lens group L4 has a positive refractive power, which moves nonlinearly on the optical axis in conjunction with the movement of the second lens group L2 and the third lens group L3, and corrects the image plane fluctuation caused by zooming. Furthermore, the fifth lens group L5 has an imaging function that does not move for zooming. In this embodiment, the Nth lens group corresponds to the second lens group L2, the P lens group corresponds to the fourth lens group L4, the V lens group corresponds to the second lens group L2, and the C lens group corresponds to the third lens group L3 and the fourth lens group L4. The focal length of 220.03 mm is the zoom position where the composite lateral magnification of the Vth lens group is -1x.

[0031] In this embodiment, the second lens group L2, the third lens group L3, and the fourth lens group L4 constitute a variable magnification system. SP is an aperture stop, which is disposed between the fourth lens group L4 and the fifth lens group L5. The aperture stop does not move in the optical axis direction during zooming. P is a glass block representing a color separation prism or an optical filter. I is an image plane, which corresponds to the imaging plane of a solid-state imaging element (photoelectric conversion element) that receives and photoelectrically converts an image formed by the zoom lens when used as an imaging optical system for a broadcast television camera, a video camera, or a digital still camera. When used as an imaging optical system for a film camera, it corresponds to the film surface to which the image formed by the zoom lens is exposed.

[0032] In the longitudinal aberration diagrams, the solid and two-dot chain lines in the spherical aberration are the e-line and g-line, respectively. In the astigmatism diagrams, the dotted and solid lines are the meridional and sagittal image planes, respectively, and in the lateral chromatic aberration, the two-dot chain line, the one-dot chain line, and the dotted lines are the g-line, C-line, and F-line, respectively. ω is the half angle of view, and Fno is the F-number. In the longitudinal aberration diagrams, the spherical aberration is drawn on a scale of 0.4 mm, the astigmatism is drawn on a scale of 0.4 mm, the distortion is drawn on a scale of 10%, and the lateral chromatic aberration is drawn on a scale of 0.1 mm. In the following examples, the wide-angle end and the telephoto end refer to the zoom positions when the second lens group L2 for zooming is located at both ends of the range in which it can move on the optical axis relative to the mechanism.

[0033] The first lens group L1 corresponds to surfaces 1 to 12. The second lens group L2 corresponds to surfaces 13 to 19, the third lens group L3 corresponds to surfaces 20 to 25, and the fourth lens group L4 corresponds to surfaces 26 to 30. The fifth lens group L5 corresponds to surfaces 31 to 53. The first lens group L1 is composed of an eleventh lens group L11 that does not move during focusing, and a twelfth lens group L12 with positive refractive power that moves during focusing from the infinity side to the close-up side. The eleventh lens group L11 corresponds to surfaces 1 to 6, and the twelfth lens group L12 corresponds to surfaces 7 to 12. The first lens group L1 is composed of six lenses, in order from the object side, a biconcave lens, a biconvex lens, a biconvex lens, a meniscus convex lens concave on the image side, and a meniscus convex lens concave on the image side.

[0034] Numerical Example 1 corresponding to the above-mentioned Example 1 will be described. In all the numerical examples, not just Numerical Example 1, i indicates the order of the surface (optical surface) from the object side, ri indicates the radius of curvature of the i-th surface from the object side, and di indicates the distance (on the optical axis) between the i-th surface and the i+1-th surface from the object side. Also, ndi, νdi, and θgFi indicate the refractive index, Abbe number, and partial dispersion ratio of the medium (optical member) between the i-th surface and the i+1-th surface, and BF indicates the back focus in air equivalent. The aspheric shape is expressed by the following formula, where the X-axis is in the optical axis direction, the H-axis is perpendicular to the optical axis, the light traveling direction is positive, R is the paraxial radius of curvature, k is the cone constant, and A3 to A16 are the aspheric coefficients. Also, "eZ" is "×10 -Z " means.
