There are provided an optical system and an imaging device including the same. The optical system includes: in order from an object side to an image side, a first lens group having refractive power; and a second lens group having positive refractive power. A variable distance that varies during focusing between the first lens group and the second lens group is closer to an object than a variable distance that varies during focusing between other lenses. The first lens group includes a positive lens and at least one or more negative lenses in order from the image side. The second lens group includes a lens subgroup 2A having positive refractive power, an aperture stop, and a lens subgroup 2B having positive refractive power in order from the object side. The lens subgroup 2B includes a negative lens and a positive lens in order from the object side and satisfies a predetermined Conditional Expression.

Optical system and imaging device including two lens groups of -+ refractive powers

There is provided: an optical system including a focus lens group having positive refractive power and configured to move along an optical axis when focusing from an infinite-distance object to a short-distance object, and satisfying predetermined conditional expressions; and an imaging device including the optical system. The focus lens group includes a lens subgroup A, an aperture stop, and a lens subgroup B in order from the object side. The lens subgroup A includes a negative lens, a positive lens, and a positive lens in order from the image side. The lens subgroup B includes a negative lens and a positive lens in order from the object side.

Optical system and imaging device

A zoom lens includes, in order from an object side, a first lens group that is positive, a second lens group that is negative, a third lens group that is positive, and a fourth lens group that is positive. During zooming from a wide angle end to a telephoto end, at least the first lens group and the third lens group are fixed and an interval on an optical axis of an adjacent lens group relative thereto is changed. In the zoom lens, the fourth lens group includes at least one positive lens and satisfies a predetermined conditional expression. In addition, an imaging device includes the zoom lens and an image sensor.
