ABSTRACT:
A zoom lens barrel of the type in which an open F-value which is not maintained constant during a zooming operation by the original optical design, is caused to maintain an open F-value constant during a zooming operation, by the application of a diaphragm correction which is effected through a mechanical change in the diaphragm aperture. The diaphragm correction which is applied to maintain the open F-value constant is terminated when a diaphragm ring is set to an open F-value on the wide angle side or to a programmed mode position.
