In a zoom lens, a first lens group having a negative refractive power, a second lens group having a positive refractive power, and a third lens group having the positive refractive power are disposed from an object side to an image side; and in a phase of variable magnification from a wide-angle end to a telescopic end, the first lens group is moved and the second lens group is moved to the object side such that an air interval between the first lens group and the second lens group is decreased and an air interval between the second lens group and the third lens group is increased.
