A wide-angle compact and lightweight lens which is capable of high magnification. To obtain a high magnification at, it is necessary to increase the amount of movement of the focus lens group, which makes it difficult to reduce the size of the entire lens. In order to reduce the amount of movement of the focus lens group, it is necessary to increase the refractive power of the focus lens group.
