  • Publication number: 20250004261
    Abstract: A zoom lens includes, in order from an object side to an image side, a first lens unit having a positive refractive power, a second lens unit having a negative refractive power, and a rear lens group including one or more lens units. An interval between lens units disposed adjacent to each other changes during zooming. A first positive lens is disposed closest to an object and has a positive refractive power. The first lens unit is stationary for zooming, and consists of first and second partial units. The first lens unit and the second lens unit are disposed in order from the object side to the image side. Among air gaps on an optical axis of lenses disposed adjacently in the first lens unit, an air gap on the optical axis between the first and second partial units is the greatest. Predetermined inequalities are satisfied.

  • Publication number: 20240427126
    Abstract: A zoom lens includes a first lens unit, a second lens unit, a third lens unit, and a rear lens group. The first lens unit has a positive refractive power. The third lens unit has a negative refractive power. The rear lens group includes one or more lens units. The first lens unit, the second lens unit, the third lens unit, and the rear lens group are disposed in order from an object side to an image side. An interval between lens units disposed adjacent to each other changes during zooming. The rear lens group includes all of lens units disposed closer to an image than the third lens unit. The first lens unit includes a first positive lens disposed closest to an object and having a positive refractive power. The rear lens group has a positive refractive power at a wide-angle end. Predetermined inequalities are satisfied.

  • Publication number: 20240411125
    Abstract: An optical system includes at least one lens, and a meta-lens having a lens surface that generates a phase change in a wavefront of light passing through the meta-lens. A phase function of the lens surface, representing a phase change amount on the wavefront corresponding to a position in a radial direction of the meta-lens, includes an inflection point.

  • Patent number: 11782252
    Abstract: An optical system includes a front lens unit, a first focusing unit having a negative refractive power, and a second focusing unit having a negative refractive power in this order from an object side to an image side. The optical system is a single focus optical system. When a focus is shifted from an object at infinity to an object at a short distance, the first focusing unit and the second focusing unit move to change a distance between the first focusing unit and the second focusing unit on an optical axis.
