Abstract

The present disclosure relates to optical lens, and provides a zoom lens including, from an object side to an image side in sequence: a first lens having a negative refractive power, a second lens having a positive refractive power, a third lens having a negative refractive power, a fourth lens having a positive refractive power, a fifth lens group having a negative refractive power; distances between adjacent two of the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, the fourth lens and the fifth lens group are variable in the direction of the optical axis; the fifth lens group including a fifth lens having a positive refractive power and a sixth lens having a negative refractive power; wherein the zoom lens satisfies conditions of: f_Tele/f_Wide>1.8; 4.78≤LB_Tele/LB_Wide≤6.20; 76.00≤ν1≤82.00; 58.00≤ν2≤78.00; and 76.00≤ν6≤82.00.

Claims (42)

1. A zoom lens comprising, from an object side to an image side in sequence: a first lens having a negative refractive power, a second lens having a positive refractive power, a third lens having a negative refractive power, a fourth lens having a positive refractive power, a fifth lens group having a negative refractive power; wherein

distances between adjacent two of the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, the fourth lens and the fifth lens group are variable in the direction of an optical axis;

the fifth lens group comprises a fifth lens having a positive refractive power and a sixth lens having a negative refractive power;

the zoom lens satisfies conditions of:

f_Tele/f_Wide > 1.8;

(1)

4.78 ≤ LB_Tele/LB_Wide ≤ 6.20;

(2)

76.00 ≤ v1 ≤ 82.00;

(3)

58.00 ≤ v2 ≤ 78.00; and

(4)

76.00 ≤ v6 ≤ 82.00;

(5)

where

f_Wide denotes a focal length of the zoom lens at the wide angle end;

f_Tele denotes a focal length of the zoom lens at the telephoto end;

LB_Wide denotes an on-axis distance from an image-side surface of the sixth lens to an image surface at the wide angel end;

LB_Tele denotes an on-axis distance from an image-side surface of the sixth lens to an image surface at the telephoto end;

ν1 denotes an abbe number of the first lens;

ν2 denotes an abbe number of the second lens; and

ν6 denotes an abbe number of the sixth lens.

2. The zoom lens according to claim 1 , wherein the zoom lens further satisfies a condition of:

10.00 ≤D 12_Wide/ D 12_Tele≤20.00;  (6)

where

D12 _Wide denotes an on-axis distance from an image-side surface of the first lens to an object-side surface of the second lens at the wide angle end; and

D12 _Tele denotes an on-axis distance from an image-side surface of the first lens to an object-side surface of the second lens at the telephoto end.

3. The zoom lens according to claim 1 , wherein the zoom lens further satisfies a condition of:

0.68 ≤d 5_Wide/ d 5_Tele≤1.20;  (7)

where

d5 _Wide denotes an on-axis distance from an image-side surface of the second lens to an object-side surface of the third lens at the wide angle end; and

d5 _Tele denotes an on-axis distance from an image-side surface of the second lens to an object-side surface of the third lens at the telephoto end.

4. The zoom lens according to claim 1 , wherein the zoom lens further satisfies a condition of:

0.55 ≤d 7_Wide/ d 7_Tele≤0.75;  (8)

where

d7 _Wide denotes an on-axis distance from an image-side surface of the third lens to an object-side surface of the fourth lens at the wide angle end; and

d7 _Tele denotes an on-axis distance from an image-side surface of the third lens to an object-side surface of the fourth lens at the telephoto end.

5. The zoom lens according to claim 1 , wherein the zoom lens further satisfies a condition of:

15.00 ≤d 9_Wide/ d 9_Tele≤22.50;  (9)

where

d9 _Wide denotes an on-axis distance from an image-side surface of the fourth lens to an object-side surface of the fifth lens at the wide angle end; and

d9 _Tele denotes an on-axis distance from an image-side surface of the fourth lens to an object-side surface of the fifth lens at the telephoto end.
