The zoom lens system according to the present invention, and, when forming the optical apparatus including the zoom lens system as described above, can be small in size and to obtain a good optical performance.

  Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the present specification, the wide-angle end state and the telephoto end state refer to an infinitely focused state unless otherwise specified. As shown in FIG. 1, the zoom lens system ZL is composed of, in order from the object side, a first lens group G1 having a negative refractive power and a second lens group G2 having a positive refractive power. Then, when the lens position state changes from the wide-angle end state to the telephoto end state, the distance between the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2 changes.

  In the zoom lens system ZL of the present embodiment, the second lens group G2 has at least two cemented lenses, and both of the two cemented lenses have a positive lens on the object side and a negative lens on the image side. It is a configuration.

  In such a zoom lens system ZL, when the average refractive index of the positive lens of the cemented lens included in the second lens group G2 is ndp and the average refractive index of the negative lens is ndn, the following conditional expression It is desirable to satisfy (1).

0.16 <ndn-ndp <0.40 (1)

  Conditional expression (1) defines the ratio of the average refractive index of the positive lens and the average refractive index of the negative lens in the cemented lens component included in the second lens group G2. Exceeding the upper limit value of conditional expression (1) is not preferable because the difference in refractive index between the positive lens and the negative lens is too large, the Petzval sum becomes too large, and the image plane is biased to the minus side. In order to secure the effect of the present embodiment, it is preferable to set the upper limit of conditional expression (1) to 0.38. In order to further secure the effect of the present embodiment, it is more preferable to set the upper limit of conditional expression (1) to 0.35. On the other hand, if the lower limit of conditional expression (1) is not reached, the difference in refractive index between the positive lens and the negative lens is small, so the Petzval sum becomes too small, making it difficult to correct astigmatism and field curvature. Become. In particular, as the distance from the optical axis increases, off-axis aberrations such as the sagittal image surface being curved are not improved, and it is not preferable because a wide angle cannot be achieved. In order to secure the effect of the present embodiment, it is preferable to set the lower limit of conditional expression (1) to 0.2.

19.0 <νdp−νdn <55.0 (2)

  Conditional expression (2) defines the ratio of the average Abbe number of the positive lens and the average Abbe number of the negative lens in the cemented lens component included in the second lens group G2. If the upper limit of conditional expression (2) is exceeded, the Abbe number difference between the positive lens and the negative lens is large, so the chromatic aberration is overcorrected, and the chromatic aberration with respect to the g-line is greatly displaced in the overcorrected direction. This is not preferable because color bleeding occurs. In order to secure the effect of the present embodiment, it is preferable to set the upper limit of conditional expression (2) to 50.0. In order to further secure the effect of the present embodiment, it is more preferable to set the upper limit of conditional expression (2) to 45.0. On the other hand, if the lower limit of conditional expression (2) is not reached, the difference between the Abbe numbers of the positive lens and negative lens is too small, both axial chromatic aberration and lateral chromatic aberration are undercorrected, and all regions from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end This is not preferable because it is difficult to balance the chromatic aberration of magnification. In order to secure the effect of the present embodiment, it is preferable to set the lower limit of conditional expression (2) to 20.0. Further, it is more preferable to set the lower limit of 25.0 in the conditional expression (2), the Petzval sum is increased, and the effect of the present embodiment can be further ensured.

  In addition, it is preferable that the cemented lenses included in the second lens group G2 are continuously arranged side by side, and can correct chromatic aberration, coma aberration, and the like while having a small number of elements, and can reduce the size of the zoom lens system ZL. Can be achieved.

  The second lens group G2 preferably has three lens components, and can correct spherical aberration and coma aberration with a small number of constituent elements, thereby achieving downsizing of the zoom lens system ZL.

As described above, by arranging the positive single lens on the object side of the cemented lens continuously arranged in the second lens group G2, it is possible to maintain a good spherical aberration with a predetermined F number. In addition, by configuring the second lens group G2 from three positive lens components, it is possible to reduce the size of the zoom lens system ZL while satisfactorily correcting aberrations, and to suppress manufacturing errors.

  The zoom lens system ZL is configured such that at least a part of the second lens group G2 moves so as to have a component perpendicular to the optical axis. With this configuration, it is possible to obtain good optical performance with less decentration coma even during vibration isolation.

  The zoom lens system ZL is configured such that at least one of the cemented lenses of the second lens group G2 moves so as to have a component perpendicular to the optical axis.

  In the zoom lens system, the first lens group G1 may include one or two single lenses having negative refractive power and a single lens having positive refractive power in order from the object side. preferable. In such a configuration, the first lens group G1 itself can be reduced in size, and the off-axis light beam can be displaced more in the optical axis direction. Good aberration correction becomes possible.

In the camera 1, when a power button (not shown) is pressed, a shutter (not shown) of the photographing lens (zoom lens system ZL) is opened, and light from a subject (not shown) is condensed by the zoom lens system ZL. The image is formed on an image sensor C (for example, a CCD or a CMOS). The subject image formed on the image sensor C is displayed on the liquid crystal monitor 2 disposed behind the camera 1. The photographer determines the composition of the subject image while looking at the liquid crystal monitor 2, and then presses the release button 3 to photograph the subject image with the image sensor C and records and saves it in a memory (not shown).

When the lens surface is a spherical surface or a flat surface, lens processing and assembly adjustment are facilitated, and optical performance deterioration due to processing and assembly adjustment errors can be prevented. Further, even when the image plane is deviated, it is preferable because there is little deterioration in drawing performance. When the lens surface is an aspheric surface, the aspheric surface is an aspheric surface by grinding, a glass mold aspheric surface made of glass with an aspheric shape, or a composite aspheric surface made of resin with an aspheric shape on the glass surface.

In the latter case, in the second lens group G2, it is preferable to arrange the lens components in order of positive and negative in order from the object side with an air gap therebetween.

  In the zoom lens system ZL of the present embodiment, the distance (back focus) on the optical axis from the image side surface to the image surface of the lens component arranged closest to the image side is about 10 to 30 mm. Is preferred.
