Zoom lens, optical apparatus, and method for forming an image of an object

摘要

In a zoom lens ZL1 having a plurality of lens groups G1 to G2 which are disposed in order from an object, where a refractive index average value of the lens components which constitute the zoom lens ZL1 is defined as ndav and a refractive index average value of the lens components which constitute the first lens group G1 which is disposed to closest to the object among the plurality of lens groups G1 to G2 is defined as ndGlav, the zoom lens ZL1 is constituted to satisfy the conditional expression ndav≧1.80 and to satisfy the conditional expression ndGlav≧1.85.
