Abstract
An optical system includes, in order from an object side, a first lens unit having positive refractive power, a second lens unit having negative refractive power, and a third lens unit having positive refractive power. A distance between adjacent lens units changes during focusing. During focusing from an infinity object to the closest object, the first and third lens units do not move and the second lens unit moves toward the image side. The third lens unit consists of, in order from the object side, a first subunit having positive refractive power, a second subunit having negative refractive power, and a third subunit having positive refractive power. The second subunit moves in a direction including a component in a direction orthogonal to an optical axis during image stabilization. The second subunit includes positive and negative lenses. A predetermined condition is satisfied.
