Abstract
An optical system includes a first unit having positive refractive power, a second unit having positive or negative refractive power and configured to move in focusing, and a third unit having negative refractive power in order from an object side to an image side. A distance between adjacent two of the units changes in focusing. When a distance on an optical axis from a lens surface closest to the object side to a lens surface closest to the image side is TL, a distance on the optical axis from a lens surface closest to the object side to a lens surface closest to the image side in the third unit is TL3, a sum of thicknesses, on the optical axis, of lenses in the third unit is SD3, and the largest of the thicknesses of the lenses in the third unit is DM3, the optical system satisfies predetermined conditional inequalities.
