Abstract
A zoom lens includes, sequentially from an object side, a first lens group having a positive refractive power; a second lens group having negative refractive power; a third lens group having a positive refractive power; and a fourth lens group having a positive refractive power. The third lens group includes, sequentially from the object side, a front group having a positive refractive power and a rear group having a negative refractive power. Zoom is performed by moving the second lens group and the third lens group in a direction along an optical axis, and by integrally moving the front group and the rear group in a direction along the optical axis. Focusing is preformed by moving the front group in a direction along the optical axis.
