Abstract

A high-performance, long-focal length macrolens system is provided which is easy-to-operate and is capable of photographing an object at an infinitely far distance and an object at a close distance without changing the overall length of the macrolens system. The system is configured in order from the object side, having: PA1 a first lens group G1, which includes a negative lens and has a positive overall refractive power, PA1 a second lens group G2, which includes a compound lens and has a negative overall refractive power, PA1 a third lens group G3, which includes a compound lens and has a negative overall refractive power, and PA1 a fourth lens group G4, which has a positive refractive power, and the system fulfills at least three preselected conditions.
