Abstract
An objective optical system includes, in order from an object side: a positive first group; a negative second group; a negative third group; and a positive fourth group, in which the second group and the third group move together toward an image side to perform focusing from an object point at a long distance to an object point at a close distance, and the following conditional expression (2) is satisfied: 0.2<(t34f−t34n)/F<2 (2), where t34f is a distance between the third group and the fourth group at a time of focusing to the object point at the long distance, t34n is a distance between the third group and the fourth group at a time of focusing to the object point at the close distance, and F is a focal length of the overall objective optical system at a time of focusing to the object point at the long distance.
