The zoom lens consists of, in order from an object side, a positive first lens group, a negative second lens group, a third lens group, a positive fourth lens group, and a positive fifth lens group.

The first lens group consists of, in order from an object side, a negative first a lens group, a positive first b lens group that moves during focusing, and a positive first c lens group. A most-image-side lens of the first b lens group is a negative meniscus lens having a convex surface facing an object side.

The zoom lens consists of, in order from an object side, a positive first lens group, a negative second lens group, a third lens group, a positive fourth lens group, and a positive fifth lens group. During zooming, the second lens group, the third lens group, and the fourth lens group move.

This disclosure describes a videoconferencing system that includes a lens housing having a longitudinal axis; a lens assembly disposed within the lens housing along the longitudinal axis and comprising from front to rear: first, second, third, fourth and fifth lens groups.

The present disclosure relates to a lens system and an imaging device including the lens system. The lens system may include a first lens group, a second lens group, a third lens group, a fourth lens group, and a fifth lens group in sequence from an object side to an image side along an optical axis of the lens system. At least one of the first lens group, the second lens group, the third lens group, the fourth lens group, and the fifth lens group may be adjustable along the optical axis of the lens system to adjust a focal length of the lens system. The lens system may satisfy

A variable magnification optical system includes a plurality of lens element, and includes in order from an object side, a first lens unit having a positive refractive power, a second lens unit having a negative refractive power, a third lens unit having a positive refractive power, and at least one lens unit. An aperture stop is either positioned between the second lens unit and the third lens unit, or positioned in the third lens unit. At the time of zooming from a wide angle end to a telephoto end, the first lens unit is fixed, the second lens unit moves from the object side to an image-plane side, and at least one of lens units positioned on an image side of the aperture stop moves. The first lens unit includes at least four positive lens elements and at least two negative lens elements.

A lens module for capturing an object light-beam from an object-side is provided. The lens module includes a first lens group, a second lens group, a third lens group, a fourth lens group and a fifth lens group sequentially-arranged from the object-side to an image-side. The five lens groups respectively have at least one lens with positive refractive-power and at least one lens with negative refractive-power. The first, third and fifth lens groups are fixed groups, while the second and fourth lens groups are movable groups. An image apparatus including the lens module is also provided.

An optical imaging system includes a first lens having positive refractive power, a second lens, a third lens, and a fourth lens, arranged sequentially from an object side along an optical axis.
