ABSTRACT:
A zoom lens includes, in order from an object side to an image side, a positive refractive, fixed first lens unit; a negative refractive second lens unit movable mainly for zooming; a positive refractive, fixed third lens unit; a positive refractive fourth lens unit movable for focal-position correction and focusing performed in response to zooming; and a positive refractive fifth lens unit. The fifth lens unit includes, in order from the object side to the image side, a negative refractive, fixed sub-unit; and a positive refractive sub-unit movable substantially perpendicularly to an optical axis. An image formed on an image surface is movable substantially perpendicularly to the optical axis by moving the movable sub-unit substantially perpendicularly to the optical axis. An aperture stop is provided on the object side of the third lens unit. The third lens unit includes a positive refractive sub-unit and a negative refractive sub-unit.
