ABSTRACT:
A compact, wide-angle, fast zoom lens system of high optical performance which enables photography in the range of from the wide-angle region to the telephoto region. The zoom lens system has a 1-st lens unit (G1) of positive refractive power, a 2-nd lens unit (G2) of negative refractive power, a 3-rd lens unit (G3) of positive refractive power, a 4-th lens unit (G4) of positive refractive power, and a 5-th lens unit (G5) of positive refractive power. When zooming from the wide end toward the tele end is effected, the 1-st lens unit (G1), the 2-nd lens unit (G2), the 3-rd lens unit (G3) and the 4-th lens unit (G4) are movable, while the 5-th lens unit (G5) is fixed. The zoom lens system satisfies a condition that regulates the refractive powers of the 1-st lens unit (G1) and the 3-rd lens unit (G3), a condition that regulates the refractive power of the 2-nd lens unit (G2), a condition that regulates the relationship between the refractive powers of the 3-rd lens unit (G3) and the 4-th lens unit (G4), and conditions that regulate the amount of movement of the lens units during zooming.
