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 unit having a positive refractive power, a second lens group having a negative refractive power, and a third lens group having a positive refractive power, and from the wide-angle end state. At the time of zooming to the telephoto end state, the distance between the first lens group and the second lens group, the distance between the second lens group and the third lens group, and the third lens group and the image plane are changed. It is characterized by doing. With this configuration, the variable magnification optical system of the present application realizes variable magnification from the wide-angle end state to the telephoto end state, and can suppress each variation of distortion aberration, astigmatism, and spherical aberration associated with variable magnification. .

  Further, on the most image side, there is a fixed lens group whose position is fixed at the time of zooming from the wide-angle end state to the telephoto end state. With this configuration, the height from the optical axis of the peripheral rays incident on the fixed lens group can be changed at the time of zooming from the wide-angle end state to the telephoto end state, and astigmatism variation can be suppressed.

In addition, the third lens unit is moved along the optical axis for focusing from an object at infinity to an object at a short distance. With this configuration, the amount of movement during focusing on the telephoto side can be reduced, the overall length of the entire optical system can be reduced, and the size can be reduced. In addition, the telephoto side is incident on the third lens group that is the focusing lens group. It is possible to suppress variations in the height of the light beam from the optical axis, and to suppress variations in spherical aberration and astigmatism during focusing.
With the above configuration, a variable magnification optical system having a high zoom ratio, a small size, and high optical performance can be realized.

  In the zoom optical system according to the present application, it is preferable that the first lens unit moves toward the object side when zooming from the wide-angle end state to the telephoto end state. With this configuration, it is possible to suppress a change in height from the optical axis of the off-axis light beam that passes through the first lens group during zooming. Thereby, not only can the diameter of the first lens group be reduced, but also fluctuations in astigmatism can be suppressed during zooming.

Further, it is desirable that the variable magnification optical system of the present application satisfies the following conditional expression (1).
(1) 0.220 <f3 / ft <0.500
However,
ft: the total focal length in the telephoto end state of the variable magnification optical system,
f3: focal length of the third lens group.

Conditional expression (1) defines an appropriate focal length range of the third lens group. The variable magnification optical system of the present application satisfies the conditional expression (1), so that spherical aberration and astigmatism at the time of zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end and at the time of focusing from an object at infinity to a short distance object Fluctuations can be suppressed.
If the lower limit of the corresponding value of the conditional expression (1) of the variable magnification optical system of the present application is below, it becomes difficult to suppress the variation of spherical aberration and astigmatism that occurs in the third lens group at the time of zooming or focusing. You will not be able to achieve high optical performance. In order to secure the effect of the present application, it is more preferable to set the lower limit value of conditional expression (1) to 0.242.
On the other hand, if the corresponding value of the conditional expression (1) of the variable magnification optical system of the present application exceeds the upper limit value, the amount of movement of the third lens group at the time of focusing from an infinite object to a close object increases. As a result, the height from the optical axis of the light beam incident on the third lens group at the time of focusing largely fluctuates, so that fluctuations in spherical aberration and astigmatism increase, and high optical performance cannot be realized. In order to secure the effect of the present application, it is more preferable to set the upper limit of conditional expression (1) to 0.385.

  In addition, it is desirable that the variable magnification optical system of the present application has an intermediate lens group that is disposed between the third lens group and the fixed lens group and has a positive refractive power. The variable magnification optical system of the present application has an intermediate lens group with positive refractive power disposed between the third lens group and the fixed lens group, so that the focal length of the third lens group can be made relatively long. The variation of spherical aberration and astigmatism occurring in the third lens group during zooming can be suppressed.

Moreover, it is desirable that the variable magnification optical system of the present application satisfies the following conditional expression (2).
(2) -0.010 <(d3t-d3w) / ft <0.130
However,
ft: the total focal length in the telephoto end state of the variable magnification optical system,
d3w: the distance on the optical axis from the most image side lens surface of the third lens group to the most object side lens surface of the intermediate lens group in the wide-angle end state;
d3t: Distance on the optical axis from the most image-side lens surface of the third lens unit to the most object-side lens surface of the intermediate lens unit in the telephoto end state.

Conditional expression (2) is the distance on the optical axis from the most image side lens surface of the third lens unit to the most object side lens surface of the intermediate lens unit at the time of zooming from the wide-angle end state to the telephoto end state. It defines the appropriate range. The zooming optical system according to the present application can suppress fluctuations in coma and astigmatism during zooming by satisfying conditional expression (2).
If the corresponding value of conditional expression (2) of the variable magnification optical system of the present application is below the lower limit value, it becomes difficult to suppress fluctuations in astigmatism that occurs in the third lens group during zooming, and high optical performance can be realized. It will disappear. In order to secure the effect of the present application, it is more preferable to set the lower limit of conditional expression (2) to 0.000.
On the other hand, if the upper limit of the corresponding value of conditional expression (2) of the variable magnification optical system of the present application is exceeded, it becomes difficult to suppress fluctuations in coma generated in the intermediate lens group at the time of zooming, and high optical performance can be realized. It will disappear. In order to secure the effect of the present application, it is more preferable to set the upper limit of conditional expression (2) to 0.065. In order to further secure the effect of the present application, it is more preferable to set the upper limit of conditional expression (2) to 0.035.

  In the variable magnification optical system of the present application, it is desirable that only the intermediate lens group is disposed between the third lens group and the fixed lens group. In the variable power optical system of the present application, the number of groups of the entire variable power optical system is reduced by forming only the intermediate lens group between the third lens group and the fixed lens group. The decentered coma aberration caused by the core can be kept relatively small, and an optical system with high optical performance can be provided.

Further, it is desirable that the variable magnification optical system of the present application satisfies the following conditional expression (3).
(3) 0.410 <f3 / fim <1.00
However,
f3: focal length of the third lens group,
fim: focal length of the intermediate lens group.

Conditional expression (3) defines an appropriate focal length ratio range between the third lens group and the intermediate lens group. The variable magnification optical system of the present application can suppress the variation of spherical aberration and astigmatism during zooming by satisfying conditional expression (3).
If the corresponding value of conditional expression (3) of the variable magnification optical system of the present application is less than the lower limit value, it becomes difficult to suppress variations in spherical aberration and astigmatism that occur in the third lens group at the time of variable magnification, and high optical performance. Can not be realized. In order to secure the effect of the present application, it is more preferable to set the lower limit of conditional expression (3) to 0.550.
On the other hand, if the corresponding value of conditional expression (3) of the variable magnification optical system of the present application exceeds the upper limit value, it becomes difficult to suppress variations in spherical aberration and astigmatism that occur in the intermediate lens group at the time of zooming, and high optical Performance will not be realized. In order to secure the effect of the present application, it is more preferable to set the upper limit of conditional expression (3) to 0.880.

  In the zoom optical system of the present application, it is desirable that the distance between the intermediate lens group and the fixed lens group is increased when zooming from the wide-angle end state to the telephoto end state. The zoom optical system of the present application increases the combined magnification of the third lens group and the intermediate lens group by increasing the distance between the intermediate lens group and the fixed lens group when zooming from the wide-angle end state to the telephoto end state. In addition, it is possible to suppress a change in spherical aberration and astigmatism during zooming while efficiently realizing a high zoom ratio.

  In the zoom optical system of the present application, it is desirable that the distance between the first lens group and the second lens group is increased when zooming from the wide-angle end state to the telephoto end state. With this configuration, it is possible to increase the magnification of the second lens group, and it is possible to suppress fluctuations in spherical aberration and astigmatism during zooming while efficiently realizing a high zoom ratio.

  In the zoom optical system of the present application, it is preferable that the distance between the second lens group and the third lens group is reduced when zooming from the wide-angle end state to the telephoto end state. With this configuration, the composite magnification of the third lens group and the subsequent lens groups can be increased, and the variation in spherical aberration and astigmatism during zooming can be achieved while efficiently realizing a high zoom ratio. Can be suppressed.

  In the zoom optical system of the present application, it is desirable that the distance between the third lens group and the image plane is increased when zooming from the wide-angle end state to the telephoto end state. The variable power optical system of the present application can increase the combined magnification of the third lens group and the subsequent lens groups by increasing the distance between the third lens group and the image plane at the time of zooming. While realizing the ratio efficiently, it is possible to suppress fluctuations in spherical aberration and astigmatism during zooming.

  In the variable magnification optical system of the present application, it is desirable that the fixed lens group has a positive refractive power. In the variable magnification optical system of the present application, the use magnification of the fixed lens group becomes smaller than the same magnification because the fixed lens group has positive refractive power. As a result, the variable magnification optical system of the present application can make the combined focal length of the lens group on the object side relatively longer than the fixed lens group, and the lens in the lens group on the object side than the fixed lens group generated in manufacturing. Eccentric coma due to decentration in the middle can be kept relatively small, and high optical performance can be realized.

  In the variable power optical system of the present application, it is desirable that the third lens group moves to the image side when focusing from an object at infinity to an object at a short distance. The variable magnification optical system of the present application can favorably focus from an object at infinity to a near object by moving the third lens group toward the image side during focusing.

  The optical device of the present application is characterized by having the variable magnification optical system having the above-described configuration. Thereby, an optical device having a high zoom ratio, a small size, and high optical performance can be realized.
