ABSTRACT:
A photographic lens comprising, from front to rear, a first lens unit of positive power, a stop, a second lens unit of positive power, a third lens unit of negative power and a fourth lens unit of positive power. The first lens unit has at least one negative lens having a strong concave surface facing the stop, and the second lens unit has at least one negative lens having a strong concave surface facing the stop. When focusing is performed from an infinitely distant object to a close object, the first and second lens units are moved forward in unison, while the third lens unit is moved by a less amount than the amount of movement of the first and second lens units, whereby closeup optical performance is improved.
