Abstract

A projection system includes a first lens group to an n-th lens group with n being 6 or 7 sequentially arranged from a enlargement side. The first lens group includes a first-first lens group and a first-second lens group sequentially arranged from the enlargement side. The two lens groups are separated from each other by a variable distance for image plane correction. The first lens group and the n-th lens group are fixed and the second lens group to the (n−1)-th group are moved when the magnification is changed. The following conditional expression is satisfied: 2<BF/fw<2.8, where fw represents the focal length of the projection system operating at the wide angle end, and BF represents the air conversion length of the back focal distance of the projection system.
