ABSTRACT:
The invention is concerned with a high-zoom-ratio, high-performance zoom lens that is much more improved in compactness. The zoom lens comprises a first lens group G1of positive refracting power, a second lens group G2of negative refracting power, a third lens group G3of positive refracting power and a fourth lens group G4of positive refracting power, with a varying space between adjacent lenses during zooming. Upon zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end of the zoom lens system, the first lens group G1is positioned nearer to the object side at the telephoto end than at the wide-angle end. The zoom lens of the invention satisfies a specific condition for properly defining the refracting power of the first lens group and a specific condition for defining the transverse magnification of the second lens group.
