Abstract

An internal focus lens includes sequentially from an object side, a first lens group having a positive refractive power; a second lens group having a negative refractive power; and a third lens group having a positive refractive power. The first lens group includes an anti-vibration lens formed by a negative lens that is moved in an orthogonal direction with respect to an optical axis to correct image blur consequent to optical system vibration, and further includes an aperture stop disposed farther on an image side of the first lens group than the anti-vibration lens. The second lens group is moved along the optical axis to perform focusing.

Claims (9)

1. An internal focus lens comprising sequentially from an object side:

a first lens group having a positive refractive power;

a second lens group having a negative refractive power; and

a third lens group having a positive refractive power, wherein

the first lens group includes an anti-vibration lens consisting of only a single negative lens that is moved in an orthogonal direction with respect to an optical axis to correct image blur consequent to optical system vibration, and includes an aperture stop disposed farther on an image side of the first lens group than the anti-vibration lens, and

the second lens group is moved along the optical axis to perform focusing.

2. The internal focus lens according to claim 1 wherein conditional expression (1) 65.76<|f/((1-βvr)×βr)|<114.59 is satisfied, where f is the focal length of the entire optical system, βvr is the magnification of the anti-vibration lens, and βr is the collective magnification of a lens group disposed farther on the image side than a lens group that includes in the anti-vibration lens.

3. The internal focus lens according to claim 1 , wherein conditional expression (2) 0.88<|fvr|/f<1.55 is satisfied, where fvr is the focal length of the anti-vibration lens and f is the focal length of the entire optical system.

4. The internal focus lens according to claim 1 , wherein conditional expression (3) 0.48<|f3|/f<0.86 is satisfied, where f3 is the focal length of the third lens group and f is the focal length of the entire optical system.
