ABSTRACT:
A zoom lens system that is free from parallax, is compact, and offers excellent optical performance has, from the object side, a positive first lens unit, a negative second lens unit, a positive third lens unit, and a negative fourth lens unit. The zoom lens system has a half-prism between the second lens unit and the third lens unit so that a light beam having passed through the second lens unit is split by reflection.
