Original Abstract Submitted
A stereoscopic optical system includes two optical systems arranged in parallel. Optical images corresponding to the two optical systems are formed on different areas in a single image sensor. Each of the two optical systems includes a plurality of lens units. A distance between adjacent lens units changes when a focal length changes in each of the two optical systems. One of the plurality of lens units is a movable lens unit. A predetermined inequality is satisfied.
