ABSTRACT:
A variable focus lens for use in reproducing images includes first, second, third, and fourth lens groups arranged successively from an object to an image, and a diaphragm disposed between the second and third lens groups. The first lens group comprises a concave meniscus lens with its concave surface facing the object. The second lens group comprises a double convex lens with the larger absolute value of the radius of curvature of its surface facing the image, a double concave lens with the larger absolute value of the radius of curvature of its surface facing the object, and a double convex lens, the lenses being arranged successively in the order named from the object. The third lens group is of the same construction as the second lens group except that the lenses of the third lens group are arranged and faced in the opposite direction to the second lens group, the second and third lens groups being positioned symmetrically with respect to the diaphragm. The fourth lens group comprises an lens identical to the lens of the first lens group and faced in the opposite direction to the first lens group, the first and fourth lens groups being positioned symmetrically with respect to the diaphragm. The first and fourth lens groups and the diaphragm are fixed, whereas the second and third lens groups are movable, the first through fourth lens groups being positioned symmetrically with respect to the diaphragm at an equal-size magnification ratio.
