An object of the present invention is to provide a super wide-angle zoom lens system having an angle of view of 2=100 or more, a zoom ratio of about 2, the f-number of about f/4, sufficient amount of peripheral light quantity, high optical performance, and aspherical surfaces capable of being manufactured easily. According to one aspect of the present invention, in order from an object, a first lens group G1 having negative refractive power, and a second lens group G2 having positive refractive power are provided. Zooming is carried out by varying a distance between the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2. The first lens group G1 has a negative lens component Ln and a positive lens component Lp. The negative lens component Ln has at least one aspherical lens Lasp. The aspherical lens Lasp satisfies given conditional expressions.
