| 20090290231 | Zoom lens and image pickup appartus - A zoom lens includes first to third negative, positive, positive lens groups. The second lens group includes first to fourth positive, negative, negative, positive lenses. The third and fourth lenses of the second lens group are bonded to each other to serve as a cemented lens. The zoom lens is configured to satisfy Conditional Expressions (1) and (2) as follows: | 11-26-2009 |
| 20100060993 | Zoom lens and image pickup device - Disclosed herein is a zoom lens formed by arranging a first lens group having a negative refractive power, a second lens group having a positive refractive power, and a third lens group having a positive refractive power in order from an object side to an image side, wherein at a time of varying power from a wide-angle end to a telephoto end, the first lens group is moved, and the second lens group is moved to the object side such that an air interval between the first lens group and the second lens group is decreased and such that an air interval between the second lens group and the third lens group is increased. | 03-11-2010 |
| 20100123958 | Zoom lens and image pickup device - Disclosed herein is a zoom lens formed by arranging a first lens group having a negative refractive power, a second lens group having a positive refractive power, and a third lens group having a positive refractive power in order from an object side to an image side, wherein at a time of varying power from a wide-angle end to a telephoto end, the first lens group is moved, the second lens group is moved to the object side, and the third lens group is moved to the image side such that an air interval between the first lens group and the second lens group is decreased and such that an air interval between the second lens group and the third lens group is increased. | 05-20-2010 |
| 20100123959 | Zoom lens and image pickup device - Disclosed herein is a zoom lens formed by arranging a first lens group having a negative refractive power, a second lens group having a positive refractive power, and a third lens group having a positive refractive power in order from an object side to an image side, wherein at a time of varying power from a wide-angle end to a telephoto end, the first lens group is moved and the second lens group is moved to the object side integrally with a diaphragm such that an air interval between the first lens group and the second lens group is decreased and such that an air interval between the second lens group and the third lens group is increased. | 05-20-2010 |
| 20100128363 | Zoom lens and imaging apparatus - A zoom lens includes: first, second and third lens groups having negative refracting power, positive refracting power and positive refracting power, respectively, disposed in the order listed from an object side to an image side, wherein during zooming from a wide angle end to a telephoto end, the first lens group is moved and the second lens group is moved toward the object such that an air space between the first and second lens groups decreases and an air space between the second and third lens groups increases; and the first lens group is formed by first and second lenses, the first and second lenses being disposed in the order listed from the object side to the image side, and the zoom lens satisfying the following Conditional Expressions (1) and (2) | 05-27-2010 |
| 20100265594 | Zoom lens and imaging apparatus - A zoom lens includes a negative first lens group, a positive second lens group, and a positive third lens group; wherein, when changing power from a wide-angle end state to a tele end state, the first lens group moves such that air space between the first lens group and the second lens group decreases, and air space between the second lens group and the third lens group increases, and the second lens group moves toward the object side; and wherein the first lens group includes a negative lens with both faces formed aspherically and the concave face facing the image side, and a positive meniscus lens with at least one face formed aspherically and the convex face facing the object side, satisfying | 10-21-2010 |
| 20100322607 | Imaging lens device and imaging apparatus - An imaging apparatus and imaging lens device comprises a light path folding optical system having a reflector that folds the optical axis incident perpendicular to the gravitational direction toward the gravitational direction. An imaging element converts an image formed by the light path folding optical system into an electrical signal. A drive unit moves a shake correction lens group including at least one lens in the direction perpendicular to a vertical optical axis, the vertical optical axis being folded toward the gravitational direction by the reflector, wherein the shake correction lens group is moved in the direction perpendicular to the vertical optical axis to move the image in the direction perpendicular to the vertical optical axis. | 12-23-2010 |
