Abstract

A zoom lens includes a negative first lens group, an aperture, and a positive second lens group. The first lens group includes a negative first lens, a negative second lens, and a positive third lens. The second lens group includes a positive fourth lens, a negative fifth lens, a negative sixth lens, and a positive seventh lens, wherein the fifth lens is formed by adhering a positive lens and a negative lens, and the sixth lens is a meniscus lens. The zoom lens can be switched toward a telephoto mode from a wide mode by moving the second lens group from the image side toward the object side.
