Abstract
A zoom lens system has, in order from an enlargement side, a first lens unit having negative optical power, a second lens unit having positive optical power, a third lens unit having positive optical power, a fourth lens unit having negative optical power, including an aperture stop, a fifth lens unit having positive or negative optical power, and a sixth lens unit having positive optical power. Zooming is achieved by varying the first to fifth variable distances between the lens units. The third and fifth lens units move from the enlargement side to the reduction side during zooming from the telephoto end to the wide-angle end. The zoom lens system is substantially telecentric toward the reduction side.
