Below, with reference to accompanying drawing embodiments of the present invention are at length described.
Fig. 1 is the sectional view of the structure example of the related zoom lens of expression embodiments of the present invention, and is corresponding with the zoom lens of embodiment 1 described later.And Fig. 2~Fig. 6 is the sectional view of another related structure example of expression embodiments of the present invention, and the zoom lens with embodiment 2~embodiment 6 described later are corresponding respectively.The basic structure of the example of Fig. 1~shown in Figure 6 is identical, and the graphic technique of each figure is also identical, therefore mainly comes the related zoom lens of embodiments of the present invention are described with reference to Fig. 1 at this.
The related zoom lens of embodiments of the present invention possess from the thing side successively along optical axis Z: the 1st lens combination G1 with positive refracting power; The 2nd lens combination G2 with negative refracting power; Diaphragm St; The 3rd lens combination G3 with positive refracting power; The 4th lens combination G4 with positive refracting power.
These zoom lens constitute: when the change of carrying out from the wide-angle side to the telescope end times, the 1st lens combination G1 and the 3rd lens combination G3 are fixing on optical axis Z, by make the 2nd lens combination G2 along optical axis Z to becoming doubly, and by the 4th lens combination G4 is moved correction and the focusing of following this change image planes position doubly along optical axis Z as side shifting.
The left side is the thing side in Fig. 1, and the right side is the picture side.Represent the lens configuration of wide-angle side at epimere, represent the lens configuration of telescope end, the schematic motion track of each lens combination when representing from the wide-angle side to the telescope end, to become times with arrow at hypomere.In addition, aperture diaphragm St shown in Figure 1 may not represent its size or shape, and the position on the expression optical axis Z.
And, in Fig. 1, image planes are illustrated as Sim.For example, with this zoom lens applications when being equipped with the camera head of imaging apparatus, the mode that is positioned at image planes Sim according to the shooting face of imaging apparatus disposes.
With zoom lens applications during in camera head, preferably according to the structure of the camera side of loading lens, the various optical filters of configuration cover glass or prism, infrared intercepting filter, low pass filter etc. etc. between by the lens of picture side and shooting face, in Fig. 1, expression has the optics PP of these parallel flat shapes of supposing to be configured in by the lens combination that looks like side and the example between the image planes Sim.
The zoom lens of present embodiment mainly have distinctive structure on the 2nd lens combination G2.Example as shown in Figure 1, the 2nd lens combination G2 constitute from the thing side comprise negative lens L21 successively, with meniscus shaped lens L22, negative lens L23, the positive lens L24 of convex surface towards the thing side.
In addition, meniscus shaped lens L22 so long as near axis area with the meniscus shape of convex surface towards the thing side, just can and have in the meniscus shaped lens of negative focal power any for the meniscus shaped lens that near axis area, has positive focal power.
For example, the 2nd lens combination G2 of the zoom lens of example shown in Figure 1 is aspheric surface by negative lens L21, the two sides of meniscus shape successively and is 3 group of 4 chip architecture that cemented lens constituted of the positive lens L24 of the negative lens L23 of the lens L22 of meniscus shape, concave-concave shape and meniscus shape near axis area from the thing side.
As described in of problem, in 4 groups zoom lens that have as present embodiment, generally with the optical system miniaturization, the situation that the 2nd lens combination is given big focal power is more in order to reduce the amount of movement of following change the 2nd lens combination doubly.But, if make the 2nd lens combination have big focal power and increase each power of lens of the 2nd lens combination, then the tolerance of foozle or assembly error diminishes easily, and becomes big easily with this performance degradation.
Thus, in these zoom lens, considered the configuration of 2 negative lens L21, L23 that the 2nd lens combination G2 has.Big more and its synthetic focal power in the airspace of 2 negative lens L21, L23 is just big more, so in order under the immovable state of the focal power of the 2nd lens combination the focal power of each negative lens of the 2nd lens combination to be reduced, can enlarge their airspace.
That is, in these zoom lens, adopt the structure at the interval that enlarges 2 negative lens L21, L23.Thus, can guarantee the big focal power that the 2nd lens combination is required, and the focal power that 2 negative lenses L21, L23 are born is reduced, increase the tolerance of foozle or assembly error, thereby can suppress to follow this performance degradation.
Except said structure, in these zoom lens in order effectively to utilize 2 spaces between negative lens L21, L23 also to adopt structure at the little meniscus shaped lens L22 of this spatial configuration focal power.By disposing the little meniscus shaped lens L22 of this focal power, the power configuration among the 2nd lens combination G2 need not change greatly, just can further advantageously distort or the correction of astigmatism (also claiming astigmatism).
For the focal power of meniscus shaped lens L22, satisfy following conditional (1) and stipulate by constituting these zoom lens.At this, f22 is the focal length of the meniscus shaped lens L22 of near axis area, and f2 is the focal length of the 2nd lens combination G2.
|f22/f2|>5.0…(1)
Conditional (1) has been stipulated the relation of the focal length of meniscus shaped lens L22 and the 2nd lens combination G2, can be described as the focal power of the having stipulated meniscus shaped lens L22 formula to the ratio of the focal power of the 2nd lens combination G2.Meniscus shaped lens L22 is the situation of negative lens, if be lower than below the lower limit of conditional (1), then is difficult to correcting distorted equably or astigmatism.Meniscus shaped lens L22 is the situation of positive lens, if be lower than below the lower limit of conditional (1), then the focal power of the 2nd lens combination G2 is little, and the mobile quantitative change of the 2nd lens combination G2 when therefore becoming times is big, and lens combination will maximize.
Meniscus shaped lens L22 sets its focal power for and diminishes, so preferably constitute with plastic material.Plastic lens is subjected to following influence of temperature variation than glass lens is easy, but in the little situation of its focal power, follows influence of temperature variation to diminish.Can seek cost degradation and lightweight by constitute lens by plastic material, therefore become favourable.
And preferred meniscus shaped lens L22 has 1 aspheric surface at least.By aspheric surface being set, can suppress aberration change or distortion well at the 2nd lens combination G2.If aspheric surface is set at the big lens of focal power, then follow the performance degradation of foozle or assembly error to become big easily, so it is not preferred, if but the little meniscus shaped lens L22 of focal power, then follow the performance degradation of foozle or assembly error little, therefore preferably aspheric surface is set at meniscus shaped lens L22.And, be provided with aspheric lens from the aspect of cost or processability preferably by lens that plastic material constituted.
In addition, also preferably aspheric surface is set from the aspect that chromatic aberation is proofreaied and correct at meniscus shaped lens L22.In the 2nd lens combination G2, meniscus shaped lens L22 does not bring very big influence to chromatic aberation, and other the lens of the 2nd lens combination G2 bring very big influence to chromatic aberation.Suppose when other the lens of the 2nd lens combination G2 are provided with aspheric surface, preferably to be made as the aspherical plastic lens that constitutes by plastic material as above-mentioned, but lower with glassy phase than the selectivity of the material of plastics, therefore be difficult to carry out well the correction of chromatic aberation at this moment.To this, when meniscus shaped lens L22 was made as aspherical plastic lens, meniscus shaped lens L22 did not bring very big influence to chromatic aberation, therefore we can say and can not bring very big non-interests in the correction of chromatic aberation.
In addition, the structure of the 2nd lens combination G2 is not limited to example shown in Figure 1.Can consider that also the 2nd lens combination G2 is made of the lens more than 5, but when paying attention to miniaturization, 4 of constituting by above-mentioned negative lens L21, meniscus shaped lens L22, negative lens L23, positive lens L24 of preferred the 2nd lens combination G2 and constituting.
Structure as the 1st lens combination G1 of these zoom lens also can be made of 1 negative lens, 3 positive lenss.In the powerful zoom lens that have about 20 times, proofread and correct for the chromatic aberation of the side of looking in the distance well, preferably constitute the 1st lens combination G1 by 4 at least.
For example, the zoom lens of example shown in Figure 1 are 3 group of 4 chip architectures that is made of the positive lens L14 of the positive lens L13 of the cemented lens of the positive lens L12 of the negative lens L11 of meniscus shape and meniscus shape, meniscus shape, meniscus shape successively from the thing side.
Example as shown in Figure 1 for example, as the structure of the 3rd lens combination G3 also can be made as by: be 2 group of 3 chip architecture that the cemented lens of the negative lens L33 of the positive lens L32 of positive lens L31, meniscus shape of meniscus shape and meniscus shape constitutes near axis area with both-sided aspherical.
Example as shown in Figure 1 for example, also can be made as by the positive lens L41 of biconvex shape, with both-sided aspherical as the structure of the 4th lens combination G4 is 2 group of 2 chip architecture that the negative lens L42 of meniscus shape constitutes near axis area.Perhaps as shown in Figure 2 example for example, also can be made as by the cemented lens of the negative lens L42 of the positive lens L41 of biconvex shape and meniscus shape, with both-sided aspherical and near axis area as the structure of the 4th lens combination G4 is 2 group of 3 chip architecture that the positive lens L43 of biconvex shape constitutes.
The preferred related zoom lens of embodiments of the present invention constitute the formula that also meets the following conditions.In addition, also can be any 1 formula that satisfies in the following conditional as preferred mode, perhaps also can satisfy combination arbitrarily.Below, conditional and its action effect about preferred mode are described.
With the Abbe number of the negative lens L23 of the 2nd lens combination G2, when refractive index is made as v23, N23 respectively, preferably satisfy following conditional (2), (3) to the d line.
v23>58.0…(2)
N23<1.55…(3)
The Abbe number of conditional (2) regulation negative lens L23 is to be used to carry out the condition that good chromatic aberation is proofreaied and correct.If be lower than below the lower limit of conditional (2), then the multiplying power chromatic aberation becomes big, and follows the change that becomes chromatic aberation doubly to become big, so not preferred.
The refractive index of conditional (3) regulation negative lens L23, if surpass more than the upper limit of conditional (3), it is favourable then being configured when short in the length of the optical axis direction of the 2nd lens combination G2, but is difficult to proofread and correct well coma aberration (also claiming coma).
The focal length of the 2nd lens combination G2 is made as f2, when the focal length of the total system of wide-angle side is made as fw, preferably satisfies following conditional (4).
1.5<|f2/fw|<2.0…(4)
The focal length of conditional (4) regulation the 2nd lens combination G2 and in the relation of the focal length of the total system of wide-angle side.At the lower limit that is lower than conditional (4) more, when increasing the focal power of the 2nd lens combination G2 more, the focal power that each lens are born becomes excessive, is difficult to obtain good image planes characteristic.And it is big that the curvature of lens becomes, and as stating, follows the performance degradation of aberration change or foozle to become big, so not preferred.Perhaps, below the lower limit that is lower than conditional (4) more, when increasing the focal power of the 2nd lens combination G2 more, in order to prevent that lens curvature from too becoming big, need to enlarge the interval of 2 negative lens L21, L23, thereby cause maximization, and the maximization of optical system integral body of the 2nd lens combination G2, so not preferred.If surpass more than the upper limit of conditional (4), then the focal power of the 2nd lens combination G2 diminishes, and the mobile quantitative change of the 2nd lens combination G2 when becoming times is big, the maximization thereby lens combination becomes.
The focal length of the 1st lens combination is made as f1, when the focal length of the 2nd lens combination G2 is made as f2, preferably satisfies following conditional (5).
5.0<|f1/f2|<5.8…(5)
Conditional (5) has been stipulated the relation of the focal length of the 1st lens combination G1 and the 2nd lens combination G2, be used to obtain hypermutation doubly, the condition of miniaturization, good optical performance.If be lower than below the lower limit of conditional (5) more, the focal length of the 2nd lens combination is got over and is become big, and the focal length of the 1st lens combination diminishes more, then follows the mobile quantitative change that becomes the 2nd lens combination doubly big, is difficult to reduce lens length overall or front lens (leaning on the lens of thing side most).And the mobile quantitative change of the 4th lens combination in the distally that is visible is big, and the aberration change when becoming times becomes big.On the contrary, if surpass more than the upper limit of conditional (5), then be difficult to the various aberrations of correcting distorted well grade.
The related zoom lens of embodiments of the present invention more preferably further satisfy any or all among following conditional (1-1), (2-1), (3-1), (4-1), (5-1).Can further improve the effect that obtains by the formula that satisfies condition respectively (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) by the formula that satisfies condition respectively (1-1), (2-1), (3-1), (4-1), (5-1).In addition, for conditional (2-1) formula, becoming by the upper limit that satisfies (2-1) more helps the correction of multiplying power chromatic aberation.
|f22/f2|>6.0…(1-1)
60.0<v23<83.0…(2-1)
N23<1.52…(3-1)
1.6<|f2/fw|<1.90…(4-1)
5.1<|f1/f2|<5.7…(5-1)
And, these zoom lens for example wait when using in the severe environment without, be configured in the temperature variation that lens by the thing side preferably use the anti-anti-surface deterioration that is caused by wind and rain, caused by direct sunlight, the material of the chemicals of the anti-anti-grease/washing agent of further preferred use etc., be water tolerance, against weather, acid resistance, the contour material of resistance to chemical reagents, and, preferably use material firm and that be difficult to fragmentation.From above situation, lean on the material of thing side preferably to use glass particularly or also can use transparent pottery most as being configured in.
When in the environment of sternness, using these zoom lens, preferably apply the multilayer film coating of protection usefulness.In addition, except protection with the coating, the reflection that also can apply the ghost image light that is used to reduce when using etc. prevents coated film.
In example shown in Figure 1, show the example of configuration optics PP between lens combination and image planes Sim, but also can replace disposing as low pass filter or by the various optical filters in certain wavelengths zone etc., these various optical filters of configuration between each lens perhaps also can apply the coating with effect identical with various optical filters at the lens face of any lens.
As described above, zoom lens according to present embodiment, by suitably adopting above-mentioned preferred construction according to desired specification etc., even when seeking miniaturization and increase the focal power of the 2nd lens combination, also can reduce the performance degradation of following foozle or assembly error, and keep the good optical performance.
