ABSTRACT:
A zoom lens which includes in order from an object side to an image side: a first lens unit with a positive refractive power; a second lens unit with a negative refractive power; and a subsequent lens unit. The second lens unit moves on an optical axis to increase an interval between the first and second lens units during zooming from a wide angle end to a telephoto end. The first lens unit includes a front side lens subunit immovable during focusing with a positive refractive power and a rear side lens subunit movable during focusing with a positive refractive power. A PR lens of the rear side lens subunit and a N2 lens of the second lens unit are made of a material wherein an Abbe number (νd) and a partial dispersion ratio (θgF) are suitably set.
