A zoom lens includes, in order from an object side along an optical axis, a first lens group having a positive refractive power, a second lens group having a negative refractive power, a third lens group having a negative refractive power, a fourth lens group having a positive refractive power, and a fifth lens group having a positive refractive power, wherein with a change in a magnification from a wide-angle end to a telephoto end, an interval between the first lens group and the second lens group is increased, the interval between the second lens group and the third lens group is changed, the interval between the third lens group and the fourth lens group is decreased, the interval between the fourth lens group and the fifth lens group is decreased, and focusing is performed by the third lens group.
