摘要 |
The present invention provides a zoom lens system suitable for an image gathering system using a solid-state imaging device, having a zoom ratio of about three, a small total lens length, and superb optical performance. According to one aspect, in order from the object side, a first lens group having negative refractive power, a second lens group having positive refractive power, and a third lens group having positive refractive power. Zooming is carried out by varying distances between adjacent lens groups. The first lens group includes two negative lens elements and a positive lens element. The second lens group includes three lens elements consisting of a first positive lens element, a second positive lens element, and a negative lens element. The third lens group includes at least one positive lens element. Predetermined conditional expressions are satisfied.
