Abstract

A wide-angle zoom lens includes a first lens group with positive refraction power, a second lens group with negative refraction power, a third lens group with positive refraction power, and a fourth lens group with positive refraction power. The first lens group, the second lens group, the third lens group, and the fourth lens group move along an optical axis of the zoom lens in focusing. The wide-angle zoom lens satisfies the formulas: 1.6<f3/fw<2.1, where f3 is the effective focal length of the third lens group, and fw is the effective focal length of the wide-angle zoom lens in a wide angle state.
