wherein the optical system is capable of switching between a normal view state and a magnified view state by moving the second lens group along an optical axis, and the third lens group includes at least one cemented lens,
wherein the cemented lens includes a positive lens and a negative lens cemented to the positive lens,
wherein the cemented lens satisfies the following conditional expressions,
15.0<ν A−ndA< 15.75 (1)
