る。In general, a rear focus type zoom lens has a smaller effective diameter of the first lens group than a zoom lens which performs focusing by moving the first lens group.
The size of the entire lens system can be easily reduced. In addition, close-up photography, particularly very close-up photography, is possible. Further, since the relatively small and lightweight lens group is moved, the driving force of the lens group is small, so that quick focusing can be performed.

It has four lens groups, a fourth lens group for power, and performs zooming by moving the first lens group and the second lens group, and performs image plane movement accompanying zooming by moving the fourth lens group. ing. Then, focusing is performed by moving one or more of these lens groups. However, in the above example, most of the zooming function is performed by the moving lens group on the object side of the aperture stop, so a large amount of space is required between the front lens and the aperture stop at the focal length at the wide-angle end. The entrance pupil position of the lens was likely to be deep, and the front lens diameter had to be huge.

In Japanese Patent Publication No. 17 (1994), etc., the distance between the front lens and the aperture stop is shortened by making the lens group behind the aperture stop movable on the optical axis during zooming and sharing the variable power function, thereby reducing the diameter of the front lens. Is being planned. However, such conventional zoom lenses tend to be mechanically complex because the lens groups on both sides of the fixed aperture stop move during zooming. Also the first
Because the lens group focuses, the diameter of the front lens becomes large to secure the luminous flux to the peripheral angle of view at a close distance, and when trying to adapt it to the rear focus method for miniaturization, optimal refraction There is a problem that the arrangement is not the force arrangement or that the fluctuation of the focus aberration due to the rear focusing is not sufficiently corrected.

In Japanese Patent Application Publication (JP-B-61-44288), a first lens unit having a positive refractive power for focusing and fixed during zooming in order from the object side, and a second lens unit having a negative refractive power moving for zooming during zooming. A zoom lens having four lens groups, a lens group, a third lens group that moves to keep the image plane position constant, and a fourth lens group having a positive refractive power fixed during zooming is proposed. According to this proposal, it is advantageous to reduce the diameter of the front lens if the stop located on the front surface of the relay lens is closer to the first surface direction at the wide-angle end where the front lens diameter is the largest or at a position slightly zoomed from the wide-angle end. In the example, the aperture is moved. Furthermore, it has been proposed that the stop and the third lens group move integrally. However, since the first lens group focuses, the diameter of the front lens becomes large in order to secure a luminous flux to the peripheral angle of view at a close distance, and if this is to be adapted to the rear focus method for miniaturization, ,
There are problems that the refractive power is not optimally arranged and that the fluctuation of the focus aberration due to the rear focusing is not sufficiently corrected.

あった。Similarly, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 57-111507 also discloses a first lens group having a positive refractive power, a second lens group having a negative refractive power, and a positive lens having a positive refractive power. The zoom lens has a third lens group. The second lens group and the third lens group move in opposite directions during zooming. The third lens group includes two positive lens groups. A positive four-group zoom lens is proposed. In this proposal, an aperture stop (aperture stop) is positioned in the third lens group. However, in this configuration, since the second lens group and the third lens group move in opposite directions, it is necessary to widen the interval between the second and third lens groups at the wide-angle end, and the stop is in the third lens group. Therefore, the entrance pupil position at the wide-angle end is closest to the image plane, which is not suitable for downsizing the front lens diameter and the entire system. Also in this case, since the first lens group focuses, the diameter of the front lens becomes large to secure the luminous flux to the peripheral angle of view at a close distance, and this is adapted to the rear focus method for downsizing. If this is attempted, there is a problem that the refractive power arrangement is not optimal, and the fluctuation of the focus aberration due to the rear focusing is not sufficiently corrected.

い。In Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 3-200113, a positive first lens unit fixed during zooming in order from the object side and a negative second lens unit moving back and forth for zooming are similarly constructed from the object side.
A zoom lens including a lens group, a positive third lens group that moves in association with the movement of the second lens group, and a positive fourth lens group that moves a part or all of the focal position accompanying zooming. Has been proposed. According to this proposal, the movement of the positive third lens group that moves in relation to the movement of the second lens group is performed to reduce the amount of image plane movement correction performed by the fourth lens group, and the correction function Are movements for sharing a part of the third lens group with the third lens group. Specifically, it is desirable to move from the image side to the object side from the intermediate focal length to the telephoto end. However, in this configuration, the second lens group and the third lens group move in opposite directions, as in the above-described known example, so that it is necessary to widen the interval between the second and third lens groups on the wide-angle side. The entrance pupil position is closest to the image plane, which is not suitable for downsizing the front lens diameter and the entire system.

ないといった欠点があった。[0011] Similarly, in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 3-15813, the lens system is composed of a positive first lens group, a negative second lens group, a positive third lens group, and a positive fourth lens group in this order from the object side. Discloses a zoom lens in which the second lens group and the third lens group are moved along the optical axis to perform zooming, and the aperture stop is moved integrally with the third lens group. According to this proposal, the distance between the second lens group and the third lens group decreases with zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end. Also in the embodiment, the third lens group having the aperture stop is located closest to the image at the wide-angle end, and at the wide-angle end where the front lens diameter is the largest or at a position slightly zoomed from the wide-angle end, the third lens group with the stop is provided. The vicinity of the three lens groups is closest to the image side, and the entrance pupil position is deep. This is disadvantageous for reducing the front lens diameter, and also has large distortion, which is suitable for reducing the front lens diameter and miniaturizing the entire system. There was a disadvantage that it was not.

In the publication No. 215810, in order from the object side, a first lens group having a positive refractive power, a second lens group having a negative refractive power, a diaphragm, a third lens group having a positive refractive power, and a positive fourth lens The zoom lens has a lens group, and moves the second lens group toward the image plane when zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end.
A rear focus zoom lens has been proposed in which the third lens group and the fourth lens group are independently moved so as to have a locus convex toward the object side, and the fourth lens group is moved in accordance with the distance. According to this proposal, it is necessary to secure a certain distance between the diaphragm and the third lens group, and the second lens group, the diaphragm, the third lens group, and the fourth lens group move significantly differently independently of each other. Therefore, there is a drawback that the mechanism tends to be complicated. Also, since the third lens group and the diaphragm move differently during zooming and the pupil position changes with respect to the third lens group, spherical aberration, coma aberration, and on-axis fluctuation which are suppressed by the third lens group. Chromatic aberration
It is not suitable because it fluctuates greatly. Further, this configuration is still insufficient for widening the angle (2ω ≧ 60 °), and the power arrangement and group movement are not optimal for widening the angle.

製造精度が厳しくなり適当でなかった。[0014] However, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No.
In Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Nos. 24213 and 63-247316, when an attempt is made to further increase the angle of view, the incident height of the off-axis light beam to the first lens group increases at the intermediate zoom position near the wide-angle end. The effective lens diameter of one lens group increases. In order to reduce the effective diameter of the first lens group, there is a method of shortening the distance between the first lens group and the stop.
However, the second lens group, which is the main zoom lens group, is located between the first lens group and the aperture, and if the distance between the first lens group and the aperture is reduced, the moving space for zooming the second lens group is insufficient. Therefore, a desired zoom ratio, particularly a zoom ratio of 10 or more, cannot be secured. If an attempt is made to obtain a desired zoom ratio in a state where the distance between the first lens unit and the aperture is reduced, the negative refractive power of the second lens unit becomes strong, the Petzval sum increases negatively, and the image plane becomes over. It is unsuitable because it tends to collapse. In addition, the sensitivity of the second lens group to the focal plane increases, and the manufacturing accuracy becomes severe, which is not appropriate.

By moving the entrance pupil, that is, the stop, to a position near the wide-angle end by moving the entrance height, the outer diameter of the first lens group can be reduced most efficiently. For this purpose, it is preferable to move the third lens group and the aperture so as to have a locus convex toward the object side as a unit, in order to reduce the diameter of the front lens and to simplify the mechanism.

ので、前述したような第4レンズ群にフォーカス機能を
持たせることが必要である。In focusing, the fourth lens group is moved to perform focusing. However, a generally known first lens group is moved on the optical axis to perform distance adjustment. The front lens focus method tends to increase the diameter of the front lens in order to secure a luminous flux on the peripheral screen at the time of shooting at a close range on the wide angle side. For this reason, in this focusing method, downsizing, which is one of the objects of the present invention, becomes difficult, and it is necessary to provide the fourth lens group with a focusing function as described above.

化を招き適当でない。When the value exceeds the upper limit of the expression (1), the highest position of the incident height of the off-axis light beam on the first lens unit is as follows.
At the middle zoom position near the wide-angle end, it becomes highest and the diameter of the front lens cannot be effectively increased, resulting in an increase in size. If the lower limit value is exceeded, the amount of movement of the third lens unit becomes large, which leads to an increase in the overall length, which is not appropriate.

有効である。In order to effectively reduce the diameter of the front lens,
Since the stop is disposed closest to the object side of the third lens group, the entrance pupil is located at the shallowest position from the first lens group, so that the outer diameter of the first lens group is most effectively reduced. It is.

When w is longer, depending on the brightness front lens diameter phi 1 of the telephoto end of the lens is reduced. Equation (2) presents an appropriate balance between the front lens diameter and the focal length at the wide-angle end for achieving a small, wide-angle zoom lens. This (1)
Deviating from either the upper limit or the lower limit of the formula makes it impossible to provide a small and wide-angle zoom lens. Specifically, when the value deviates from the upper limit, the zoom lens is closer to the telephoto, and when the value deviates from the lower limit, the zoom lens tends to be large.

Fm is the focal length (focal length when M3max is achieved) of the entire system at the position where the third lens group and the diaphragm move to the object side most. Regardless of either the upper limit or the lower limit of the equation (3), the highest position of the incident height of the off-axis light beam to the first lens group cannot be set near the wide-angle end, so that the third lens group and the stop can be appropriately adjusted. No movement is given. That is, it is not appropriate because it leads to an increase in the front lens diameter and the entire system.

Further, the movement amount of the second lens unit, which is the main variable power lens unit, directly relates to the variable power ratio, and it is necessary to appropriately correlate the total length with the total length.
For this purpose, it is preferable that the following conditional expression is satisfied.

干渉を起こしやすくなり適当でない。−0.4 <M3max / M2 <−0.04 (4) Here, M2 is the amount of movement of the second lens unit accompanying zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end. When the value exceeds the upper limit of the expression (4), the moving amount of the second lens unit becomes large, the total length and the diameter of the front lens become large, and the absolute value of M3max becomes small.
The highest position of the incident height of the off-axis light beam to the lens group cannot be set near the wide angle end, which leads to an increase in the diameter of the front lens, which is not appropriate. If the value exceeds the upper limit, the amount of movement of the second lens unit becomes small, so that a desired telephoto ratio cannot be secured, and the absolute value of M3max becomes large, resulting in an increase in the size of the entire system and interference of the 2.3 lens unit. It is not suitable because it becomes easy.

にも絡むので以下の条件式を満たすのが好ましい。In order to set a wide angle of view at the wide-angle end, if the distance e1 between the principal points of the first positive lens unit and the second negative lens unit at the wide-angle end is short, the focal length of the entire system can be further reduced. Is possible. However, a minimum air gap is required between the first lens group and the second lens group, and it is not appropriate to collide with each other. Therefore, it is preferable that the image-side principal point of the first lens group is set closer to the second lens group, or that the object-side principal point of the second lens group is set closer to the first lens group. In particular, in the first lens group, it is preferable to satisfy the following conditional expression because the size of the front lens is also involved.

This equation is necessary to shorten the distance between the principal points of the first lens group and the second lens group as described above. If the lower limit value is exceeded, the principal point position of the first lens group goes too far to the object side, and the above-mentioned e1 cannot be shortened, and the desired wide angle cannot be obtained.
When the value exceeds the upper limit, the distance between the first lens unit and the second lens unit increases, and the diameter of the front lens becomes large, which is not appropriate.

Equation (6) is an equation necessary for effectively reducing the size of the entire system. If the lower limit is exceeded, not only is it impossible to insert a block such as a filter, but also the exit pupil becomes shorter. However, the image formation on the image sensor is shifted from the telecentric system, which is inappropriate. On the other hand, if the ratio exceeds the upper limit, the size becomes large, which is not suitable.

When the same magnification is interposed, the locus of zooming of the fourth lens group is substantially reciprocating, and high zooming is possible with the most effective space efficiency. Specifically, if the upper limit of the equation (7) is exceeded, the second
The object point with respect to the lens group becomes far, the imaging magnification of the second lens group becomes low, and it is difficult to effectively reduce the size. Furthermore,
The distance between the first lens group and the second lens group increases, and it is difficult to achieve miniaturization. If the lower limit value is exceeded, the magnification of the second lens group becomes large, and it is difficult to achieve high magnification, and the object of the present invention cannot be achieved.

By appropriately selecting the movement of the third lens group, which is the diaphragm group, with respect to the movement of the fourth lens group mainly moving to correct the image plane movement, the front lens diameter and the overall length can be reduced. If the lower limit of (8) is exceeded, the amount of movement of the third lens unit becomes large, and the front lens diameter and overall length become large, which is not appropriate.

In order to eliminate this, it is preferable to introduce an aspherical surface on the surface of the third lens group near the stop. The specific shape of the aspheric surface is not limited, but it is preferable that the positive refractive power becomes weaker or the negative refractive power becomes stronger toward the periphery of the lens.
