  However, the conventional variable magnification optical system having the image stabilization function has a problem that the variable magnification ratio is about two times, so that the requirement for a high variable magnification ratio cannot be sufficiently satisfied.

  Hereinafter, a variable magnification optical system having an image stabilization function according to an embodiment of the present application will be described.

The variable magnification optical system having the image stabilization function according to this embodiment includes, in order from the object side, a first lens group having a negative refractive power, a second lens group having a positive refractive power, and a negative refractive power. A third lens group having a positive refractive power, and a distance between the second lens group and the third lens group when zooming is performed from the wide-angle end state to the telephoto end state. Changes, the lens group moves so that the distance between the third lens group and the fourth lens group changes, and at least a part of the third lens group is shifted in a direction orthogonal to the optical axis, thereby generating An anti-vibration lens group that performs image surface correction when blurring occurs, the anti-vibration lens group has at least one aspheric surface, and satisfies the following conditional expressions (1) and (2): And
(1) 1.20 <f2 / fw <2.50
(2) -2.10 <f3 / fw <-0.80
However,
f2: focal length of the second lens group f3: focal length of the third lens group fw: focal length of the entire system in the wide-angle end state Conditional expression (1) defines the refractive power of the second lens group. With this, a predetermined zoom ratio is effectively secured, and good optical performance is achieved even during vibration isolation while ensuring good optical performance.

  If the lower limit value of conditional expression (1) is not reached, the refractive power of the second lens group becomes too strong, and decentration aberrations during image stabilization, that is, coma aberration or astigmatism will deteriorate. If the upper limit of conditional expression (1) is exceeded, the refractive power of the second lens group becomes too weak, and the amount of movement of each group increases during zooming, and zooming from the wide-angle end state to the telephoto end state is performed. In addition, it becomes difficult to correct field curvature aberration and chromatic aberration. In order to secure the effect of the present application, it is desirable to set the upper limit of conditional expression (1) to 1.80. In order to secure the effect of the present application, it is desirable to set the lower limit of conditional expression (1) to 1.30.

  Conditional expression (2) defines the refracting power of the third lens group, thereby realizing a good optical performance even during image stabilization while effectively securing a predetermined zoom ratio.

  If the lower limit value of conditional expression (2) is not reached, the refractive power of the third lens group becomes too weak and the amount of movement of the third lens group at the time of zooming increases, so that the variation in field curvature at the time of zooming varies. Becomes larger and this correction becomes difficult. If the upper limit of conditional expression (2) is exceeded, the refractive power of the third lens group becomes too strong, and decentration aberrations, particularly spherical aberrations, during image stabilization are deteriorated. In order to further secure the effect of the present invention, it is desirable to set the lower limit of conditional expression (2) to -1.50.

  In addition, a high zoom ratio can be achieved by increasing the distance between the second lens group and the third lens group and decreasing the distance between the third lens group and the fourth lens group. This is preferable because the variation of spherical aberration during zooming can be reduced.

In addition, at least one aspheric surface in the third lens group has a positive refracting power or a negative refracting power that is stronger from the optical axis toward the periphery than a spherical surface having a paraxial radius of curvature. The shape thus formed further satisfies the following conditional expression.
(3) 0.00001 <| ASPd0.5 | / (H / 2) <0.01
(4) 0.0001 <| ASPd1.0 | / (H / 2) <0.01
(5) | ASPd0.5 | / | ASPd1.0 | <1
Where H is the effective diameter of the aspherical lens, ASPd0.5 is the deviation between the paraxial curvature radius and the aspherical shape at 50% of the aspherical effective diameter, and ASPd1.0 is 100% of the effective aspherical diameter. The amount of deviation between the paraxial radius of curvature and the aspherical shape at the height of.

   Conditional expressions (3), (4), and (5) are aspherical shapes for minimizing degradation of imaging performance when the third lens group, which is an anti-vibration lens group, is moved in a direction orthogonal to the optical axis. Stipulate. If the lower limit values of the conditional expressions (3) and (4) are exceeded, the effect of correcting the aspherical surface cannot be achieved, and the number of lenses increases for correcting various aberrations. Or, it is not desirable because coma becomes worse. If the upper limit values of the conditional expressions (3) and (4) are exceeded, correction of various aberrations such as spherical aberration becomes excessive, and at the same time, the imaging performance is deteriorated when the vibration-proof lens is moved. Further, the aspherical surface is configured such that the positive refractive power gradually increases from the optical axis toward the periphery as compared with the spherical surface having a paraxial radius of curvature, or the negative refractive power is weakened. When the vibration-proof lens moves, various aberrations of the on-axis light beam and off-axis light beam can be corrected efficiently. If the upper limit value of conditional expression (5) is exceeded, high-order aberrations such as spherical aberration and coma aberration occur in the anti-vibration lens group when the anti-vibration lens is moved, and the imaging performance after the movement is deteriorated. It will be a thing.

  In the variable magnification optical system having the present image stabilization function, it is desirable to have a cemented lens in the third lens group. By adopting such a configuration, it is possible to maintain good lateral chromatic aberration during image stabilization.

  In the variable magnification optical system having the present image stabilization function, it is desirable that the first lens group has at least one aspheric surface and is constituted by three or less lenses. By adopting such a configuration, the overall lens length can be shortened, and the curvature of field can be favorably corrected.

  In the variable magnification optical system having the present image stabilizing function, it is desirable that the lens closest to the object side in the first lens group is a negative lens having an aspheric surface on the image side surface. With such a configuration, it is possible to satisfactorily correct field curvature and wide-angle coma.

  In the variable magnification optical system having the present image stabilization function, it is desirable that the fourth lens group is composed of three or less lenses and has at least one aspherical surface. With such a configuration, the total lens length can be shortened, and coma can be corrected well.

  In the variable magnification optical system having the present image stabilization function, it is desirable that each of the second lens group to the fourth lens group has at least one cemented lens. With such a configuration, it is possible to maintain good chromatic aberration, particularly lateral chromatic aberration, that occurs during zooming.

  In the variable magnification optical system having the image stabilization function, it is desirable that the lens surface closest to the image surface is convex toward the image surface. With such a configuration, curvature of field can be corrected well, and ghosts caused by reflected light from the image surface can be reduced.

  Further, by arranging an aperture stop in the vicinity of the third lens group, various aberrations such as spherical aberration can be favorably corrected.

  The aperture stop moves integrally with the third lens group when zooming from the wide-angle end state to the telephoto end state, thereby reducing variations in various aberrations such as spherical aberration during zooming. be able to.
