As a conventional zoom lens that has been designed to be more compact, it is a so-called two-group zoom that consists of two lens groups: a diverging lens group and a convergent second lens group, and performs zooming by changing the distance between both lens groups. Many lenses have been proposed. The present applicant has also proposed this in Japanese Patent Application Laid-open Nos. 53-132360 and 1987-19022. The former uses a three-lens configuration for the diverging object-side lens group, increases the power to some extent, and reduces the principal point distance between both lens groups to some extent at the telephoto end zoom position, thereby reducing the diameter of the front lens of the zoom lens. The total lens length (length from the first lens surface to the image plane groove), especially at the wide-angle end zoom position, has been made compact. On the other hand, the latter moves the object-side lens group linearly on the optical axis during zooming, thereby reducing the overall length of the lens at the telephoto end zoom position.
The power of the divergent object-side lens group ":1" is weaker than that of the former zoom lens. When trying to make a zoom lens system more compact, in the case of the former, if the power of the diverging object-side lens group is made even stronger, the total lens length at the wide-angle end zoom position becomes even shorter, but conversely, the overall length of the lens at the telephoto end zoom position becomes shorter. The total length of the lens becomes longer at the zoom position, and eventually the total length of the lens at the wide-angle end zoom position also becomes longer. On the other hand, the latter is preferable for shortening the total lens length at the telephoto end zoom position, but it tends to increase the lens total length at the wide-angle end zoom position, and is also undesirable because it increases the diameter of the front lens of the zoom lens. Generally, in a two-group zoom lens, in order to most efficiently shorten the total lens length of the zoom lens, it is preferable to make the total lens lengths equal at both the wide-angle end and the telephoto end.

The features of the lens configuration of a zoom lens to achieve the object of the present invention are three lens groups, in order from the object side: a diverging first lens group, a convergent second lens group, and a diverging third lens group. The zoom lens is configured by moving the first lens group and the second lens group on the optical axis to perform zooming.

Comparing the configuration of the zoom lens of the present invention with the conventional two-group zoom lens, it is found that the convergent second lens group on the image side is composed of two lenses: a convergent lens group and a diverging lens group. The configuration is the same as that in which only the divided convergent lens group is moved along the optical axis along with the diverging lens group to perform zooming. Although the configuration of the zoom lens of the present invention can be considered in this way, the configuration of the zoom lens of the present invention is a new type of zoom lens devised to improve optical performance while reducing the size of the zoom lens. That's why.

That is, as shown in FIG. 1, conventionally it consists of three lens groups: a diverging lens group, a convergent second lens group, and a diverging third lens group. A zoom lens is known that performs zooming by moving the lens toward the object side and moving the lens group non-linearly. In order to maintain a certain zoom ratio in such a zoom system, it is necessary to increase the amount of movement of the second lens group and at the same time move the lens group and the third lens group as indicated by dotted line arrows in the figure.

In this case, the position of the cylindrical lens group tends to be farther forward on the object side at the telephoto end than at the wide-angle end, and the overall length of the lens at the telephoto end becomes longer and larger.

Next, as the amount of zoom movement of the third lens group is reduced, the amount of movement of the third lens group toward the image side increases, so it is necessary to maintain a certain zoom ratio with a small amount of zoom movement of the second lens group. 0 The zoom lens of the present invention was created for the purpose of achieving high optical performance while downsizing the zoom lens by taking advantage of the characteristics of the zoom lens. It is a wide-angle zoom lens that is fixed during zooming and has the characteristics of a so-called two-group zoom lens, and is extremely compact and achieves excellent aberration correction.

Next, we will compare the zoom lens configuration according to the present invention with a two-group zoom lens, taking as an example a so-called two-group zoom lens, which is considered to be advantageous in reducing the size of conventional zoom lenses. The fact that the zoom lens according to the present invention is suitable for further miniaturization will be explained with reference to the figures.

FIGS. 2(a) and 2(b) are explanatory diagrams of a conventional two-group zoom lens and a zoom lens according to the present invention, where I is the positive lens group, ■ is the negative second lens group, and F is the negative second lens group. This is the film side. As shown in FIG. 6(b), if the convergent image-side second lens group ■ is divided into positive and negative lens groups ■1 and ■□, and the lens configuration is similar to the zoom lens according to the present invention,
This divided lens group itself has a telephoto type lens configuration, so the distance to the film plane F is short.
′ position, so the back focus becomes short. This makes it possible to shorten the overall lens length at both the wide-angle end and the telephoto end. Figure 3(a)
t(b) and FIGS. 4(a) and 4(b) illustrate the amount of movement of the lens group due to zooming. As shown in Figure 3(b), the power of the divided convergent lens group is naturally stronger than the power of the lens group before division because the other divided lens group is negative. The same zoom ratio can be achieved with a smaller amount of movement than in (a). As a result, the distance between the principal points of the diverging lens group and the divided convergent lens group at the zoom position at the wide-angle end can be reduced by ΔD, and as a result, the overall length of the lens can be shortened.

Furthermore, in the zoom lens according to the present invention, even if the power of the diverging cylindrical lens group is the same as the power of the diverging lens group in a conventional two-group zoom lens, the power of the second lens group is As the strength increases, it is advantageous to shorten the overall length of the lens. In conventional two-group zoom lenses, the power of the second lens group is increased to make the total lens length at the wide-angle end the same as the lens length at the telephoto end, making it possible to efficiently downsize the zoom lens. In addition, the zoom lens of the present invention allows the overall length of the lens to be shortened.

As mentioned above, the zoom lens according to the present invention
Compared to a two-group zoom lens, it has less convergence and can achieve the zoom ratio with less movement of the second lens group. The position of the diverging tube lens group I is further ΔD toward the image side, as shown in FIG. 4(b), compared to the conventional example shown in FIG. 4(a). Therefore, since the total lens length at the telephoto end is shorter than the total lens length at the wide-angle end, there is a margin for shortening the total lens length at the wide-angle end, and the power of the diverging Luns group is further strengthened to shorten the total lens length.

The basic features of the zoom lens according to the present invention have been described above in comparison with a conventional two-group zoom lens for simplicity.

On the other hand, it is also possible to consider the zoom lens according to the present invention to be composed of three lens groups, with the first lens group and the second lens group moving to perform zooming, and the third lens being fixed. It goes without saying that this is not a problem as mentioned in the explanation of the figure.

The zoom lens according to the present invention can achieve miniaturization and good aberration correction with the lens configuration described above, but in order to obtain even better optical performance, it is preferable to satisfy the following conditions. .

This is a condition to limit the power of the second lens group and prevent the amount of aberration generated from this second lens group from becoming extremely large.It is also a condition to maintain the necessary amount of back focus at the wide-angle end. There is also. Outside this range, the amount of aberrations generated by the second lens group increases dramatically, making it impossible to properly correct the aberrations of the zoom lens as a whole, and the back focus becomes too short, with 35mm at the wide-angle end. Mi IJTTL - When attached to an eye-reflex camera, mirror-up becomes difficult. Next, when the focal length of the lens group is fI, 1f11 is smaller than fT, that is, 1fIl<fT. This is a condition for shortening the overall lens length and reducing the diameter of the front lens of the zoom lens. If this condition is not met, the overall length of the lens at the wide-angle end zoom position and the diameter of the front lens of the zoom lens become too large, making it difficult to make it compact. Further, when the zoom ratio is 2 times or less and the open F-number is about F/4 as in the embodiment of the present invention described later, it is preferable that the diverging third lens group is composed of at least a positive lens and a negative lens. This is to make the entire zoom lens system compact by reducing the number of lenses as much as possible within a range that does not worsen the aberrations of the entire zoom lens system.

In addition, when the second lens group has an aperture stop, the power of the second lens group is strong to some extent, so barrel-shaped distortion tends to occur at the wide-angle end. It becomes possible to perform drag wedge correction with the third lens group located at In order to effectively perform the correction at this time, the third
It is preferable to configure the lens group with at least one positive lens and one negative lens.

If the upper limit of conditional expression (1) is exceeded, the thickness of the third lens group will increase, which is unfavorable for making the entire lens system compact, and if the lower limit is exceeded, the lens thickness will be too thin. It becomes difficult to construct a lens having a radius of curvature of

Furthermore, in order to make the entire zoom lens system compact while maintaining good optical performance of the zoom lens according to the present invention, it is necessary to use a highly divergent first lens group having a strong refractive power with an extremely simple lens structure and from this lens group. In order to minimize the amount of aberration that occurs, the lens group is moved closer to the object side.
The lens is constructed of, in order, a meniscus-shaped first negative lens with a convex surface facing the object side, a second negative lens with both lens surfaces concave, and a meniscus-shaped third positive lens with a convex surface facing the object side.

It is preferable to use the air gap formed by the second negative lens and the third positive lens to form an air lens with a convergence effect in order to satisfactorily correct various aberrations at the telephoto end. Further, it is preferable that the second lens group is composed of two or more positive lenses, a negative lens, and a positive lens in order from the object side, in order to properly correct aberrations over the entire zoom range.

Next, keeping the refractive power distribution of the lens group and the third lens group within the range allows the entire lens system to be made smaller.
Moreover, it is preferable to perform good aberration correction over the entire zoom range and to reduce aberration fluctuations due to zooming.

Below the lower limit of conditional expression (2), the total length of the lens tends to be longer at the wide-angle end than at the telephoto end, and furthermore, it becomes difficult to satisfactorily correct spherical aberration at the telephoto end. If it exceeds the upper limit, the overall length of the lens at the negative angle end will not be shortened enough, which is not preferable.

Below the lower limit of conditional expression (3), it is difficult to obtain the necessary amount of back focus at the wide-angle end, and furthermore, it becomes difficult to configure the third lens group with a simple lens in terms of performance. If the upper limit is exceeded, the power of this third lens group becomes too weak, and the effect of compactness is diminished. Also,
The reason why the lens group and the third lens group are configured as described above is to eliminate the occurrence of spherical aberration to some extent within each lens group and to satisfactorily correct fluctuations in spherical aberration due to zooming.

As shown in Table 1, the third lens group has constant spherical aberration (SA) even during zooming, but astigmatism (AS) and distortion Both aberrations (DS) act in the direction of overcorrection, and astigmatism (As) has a stronger effect on the wide-angle side and less on the telephoto side. In the zoom lens according to the present invention, the powers of the first lens group and the second lens group are strengthened to a certain extent, so that the lens system in which the first lens group and the second lens group are combined prevents astigmatism that is undercorrected, especially at the wide-angle end. Since this is likely to occur, the action of the third lens group becomes extremely effective for correcting aberrations at this time. It is also effective in correcting barrel-shaped distortion, which tends to occur at the wide-angle end.

In this way, in the zoom lens according to the present invention, the third
The lens group has an effect of canceling out aberrations generated from the first lens group and the second lens group, □.11. For this reason, in conventional zoom lenses with a two-group structure in which aberrations are corrected in the entire lens system, a so-called rear attachment lens (which alone eliminates aberrations) is attached between the zoom lens and the image plane. Even when compared to a zoom lens that is simply a three-lens group that changes the focal length of the entire lens system, the zoom lens of the present invention has fundamentally different purposes and effects; it simply has a negative and a positive lens group. This has a particularly different effect from adding a new lens group to the rear of a zoom lens and changing the focal length.

In the present invention, by having the lens configuration as described above,
As shown in the examples described later, the angle of view is 62° to 35.3°,
With an F number of 1:4 to 4.5, it is possible to realize an extremely compact wide-angle zoom lens whose total lens length at the wide-angle end is about 1.4 times the focal length at the telephoto end, and which has good performance.
