Abstract
Provided are a zoom lens which can be configured to have a small size while ensuring a high zoom ratio and has high optical performance by satisfactorily correcting chromatic aberration, and an imaging apparatus including the zoom lens. The zoom lens consists of, in order from the object side, a first lens group G1 that has a positive refractive power and remains stationary during zooming, a plurality of movable lens groups that move during zooming; and a final lens group Ge that has a positive refractive power and remains stationary during zooming. At least one movable lens group has a negative refractive power. The movable lens group, which is closest to the object side and has a negative refractive power, has two or more negative lenses, and satisfies predetermined conditional expressions.
