Hereinafter, a variable magnification optical system, an optical apparatus, and a method for manufacturing the variable magnification optical system of the present application will be described.
The variable magnification optical system of the present application includes, in order from the object side, a first lens group having a positive refractive power, a second lens group having a negative refractive power, and a rear lens group having a positive refractive power. The distance between the first lens group and the second lens group and the distance between the second lens group and the rear lens group change during zooming from the wide-angle end state to the telephoto end state. It is said. With this configuration, the variable magnification optical system of the present application can realize variable magnification from the wide-angle end state to the telephoto end state, and can suppress fluctuations in distortion due to the variable magnification.

The variable magnification optical system of the present application is characterized by having at least one lens that satisfies the following conditional expressions (1) and (2).
(1) 1.929 <ndh
(2) 28.60 <νdh
However,
ndh: refractive index with respect to d-line (wavelength 587.6 nm) of the lens νdh: Abbe number with respect to d-line (wavelength 587.6 nm) of the lens

Conditional expression (1) defines an optimum refractive index of the lens. By satisfying conditional expression (1), the variable magnification optical system of the present application can suppress the variation in spherical aberration and the variation in astigmatism during zooming while achieving miniaturization.
If the corresponding value of conditional expression (1) of the zoom optical system of the present application is below the lower limit value, it becomes difficult to suppress fluctuations in spherical aberration and astigmatism during zooming, and high optical performance is realized. Will not be able to. In order to secure the effect of the present application, it is more preferable to set the lower limit of conditional expression (1) to 1.940.

On the other hand, if the corresponding value of conditional expression (5) of the variable magnification optical system of the present application exceeds the upper limit value, it becomes difficult to suppress positive spherical aberration occurring in the second lens group in the telephoto end state, and high optical performance. Can not be realized.

When the lens has a negative refractive power, if the corresponding value of the conditional expression (5) of the variable magnification optical system of the present application is less than the lower limit value, the fluctuation of astigmatism generated in the lens at the time of zooming can be suppressed. This makes it difficult to achieve high optical performance. On the other hand, if the corresponding value of conditional expression (5) of the variable magnification optical system of the present application exceeds the upper limit value, it is difficult to suppress variations in axial chromatic aberration and magnification chromatic aberration that occur in lenses other than the lens during zooming. As a result, high optical performance cannot be realized.
