Abstract: The imaging lens includes, in order from the object side, a first lens group that remains stationary during focusing; a diaphragm; and a positive second lens group that moves to the object side during focusing from a long range to a close range. The first lens group includes, in order from the object side: a negative meniscus lens that has an absolute value of a radius of curvature of an image side surface smaller than that of an object side surface, a negative lens, a positive lens, and a negative lens. The second lens group includes five or less lenses, and includes: a positive Z lens that is formed continuously in order from a most image side; a negative Y lens that has an absolute value of a radius of curvature of an object side surface smaller than that of an image side surface; and a positive X lens.

Abstract: The imaging lens includes at least one positive lens that satisfies predetermined conditional expressions (1) to (3) indicating conditions in which dispersion is relatively low and refractive index is high while having a negative rate of change of the refractive index. In a case where a lens that satisfies a conditional expression (4) meaning a low dispersion material is included, the lens that satisfies the conditional expression (4) satisfies a predetermined conditional expression (5).

Abstract: The imaging lens consists of, in order from the object side, a positive first lens group that has a positive refractive power and remains stationary during focusing, and a second lens group that moves toward an image side during focusing from a distant object to a close-range object. The first lens group has, successively in order from a position closest to the image side, a first-b sub-lens group having a positive refractive power, and an aperture stop. The imaging lens satisfies predetermined conditional expressions relating to the first-b sub-lens group, the second lens group, and the like.

Abstract: The imaging lens consists of, in order from the object side, a first lens group, an aperture stop, a second lens group having a positive refractive power. During focusing from a distant object to a close-range object, the first lens group remains stationary, and the aperture stop and the second lens group integrally move to the object side. The imaging lens satisfies predetermined conditional expressions relating to a focal length of the whole system, a focal length of the first lens group, a principal point position of the second lens group, a focal length of the second lens group, a back focal length, and the like.

Abstract: The imaging lens consists of a first lens group G1, an aperture stop St, and a positive second lens group G2, in order from an object side. The first lens group G1 consists of a 1-1st negative meniscus lens L11 with its convex surface toward the object side, a 1-2nd negative lens L12 with its concave surface toward an image side, a 1-3rd positive lens L13 having a biconvex shape, a 1-4th negative meniscus lens L14 with its convex surface toward the object side, and a 1-5th positive lens L15 with its convex surface toward the object side, in order from the object side. Predetermined conditional expressions are satisfied which relate to a focal length of the whole system, a focal length of the first lens group G1, and a distance on an optical axis between the 1-4th negative meniscus lens L14 and the 1-5th positive lens L15.

Abstract: The imaging lens includes a first lens group fixed during focusing and a positive second lens group moving to an object side during focusing from a long-distance object to a short-distance object, in order from a side closest to the object. The field curvature is adjusted by moving the first lens group or a sub-lens group within the first lens group including a lens closest to the object side, as an adjustment group. A stop fixed during the adjustment of the field curvature is disposed closer to an image side than the adjustment group. Conditional expressions relating to the focal length of the whole system, the focal length of the adjustment group, and the height of a paraxial on-axis light ray in the adjustment group are satisfied.
