Original Abstract Submitted

Provided is a lens barrel capable of realizing a smooth operation of an optical system in a lens barrel body. A lens barrel () includes a variable-speed zooming lever () that is provided along an outer periphery of a lens barrel body () and a fixed protrusion portion () that is provided along the outer periphery of the lens barrel body (), in which the variable-speed zooming lever () has a first surface () and the fixed protrusion portion () has a second surface (). In a case where a position of the variable-speed zooming lever () is a reference position, the first surface () is flush with the second surface (), and the variable-speed zooming lever () and the fixed protrusion portion () are movable relative to each other.
