ABSTRACT:
The zooming device comprises first and second lens groups movably supported by a guide shaft which is disposed in parallel to a cam shaft, an outer surface of which has first and second cam grooves. First and second pins provided on the first and second lens groups are engaged with the first and second cam grooves, respectively. A cam surface of the first cam groove is inclined to a plane perpendicular to the axis of the cam shaft. By varying the distance between the guide shaft and the cam shaft, the first pin and the first lens group are moved along the optical axis of the lens groups, so that a focusing adjustment is performed.
