Abstract
An optical system includes, in order from object side, a first unit, a stop, a second unit, and a third unit. The first and second units are moved toward object side to increase respective intervals from the third unit for focusing from infinity to proximity. The first unit includes a negative lens and a positive lens arranged adjacent and on image side of the negative lens. The third unit consists of a positive lens (G3P) and a negative lens (G3N) arranged adjacent and on image side of the positive lens (G3P). An equivalent air length from a lens surface on image side of the negative lens (G3N) to an image plane when focused at infinity, and a distance on an optical axis from a lens surface on object side of a lens (G1F) arranged closest to object side, to the image plane when focused at infinity are appropriately set.
