Provided is a zoom lens including in order from an object side: a positive first lens unit not moving for a change in magnification; a negative second lens unit moving for a change in magnification; and two or three rear lens units having a positive refractive power as a whole, at least one of the rear lens units being configured to move for a change in magnification. The first lens unit includes a negative first lens sub-unit not moving for focusing, a positive second lens sub-unit moving for focusing, a third lens sub-unit not moving for focusing, and a positive fourth lens sub-unit moving for focusing. An amount of movement of the second lens sub-unit during focusing from infinity to a minimum object distance, and an amount of movement of the fourth lens sub-unit during focusing from infinity to the minimum object distance satisfy a specific conditional expression.
