ABSTRACT:
A zoom lens comprising a first lens group having a positive refractive power; a second lens group having a negative refractive power that moves for zooming; a third lens group movable to correct image surface movement; and a fourth lens group stationary during zooming. The fourth lens group consists of six lenses. The first lens reduces divergence of a light beam. Further, if the overall focal length of the system at the wideangle end is F.sub.W ; the focal length of the second lens group is F.sub.2 ; the focal length of the combination of the second to sixth lenses is F.sub.42 ; and the focal length of the combination of the second to fourth lenses is F.sub.A, then the conditions: ##EQU1## are satisfied.
