A zoom lens comprising, from the object side to the image side, a front
lens group (72), a controllable lens group, and a rear lens group (74),
the controllable lens group comprising a voltage-controlled
electrowetting device, which device contains a first fluid (A) and a
second fluid (B) having different refractive indices, with at least two
first fluid-second fluid interfaces (40,42). The curvatures, and thus the
lens power, of these interfaces can be changed independently by supplying
a voltage (V1, V2) to electrodes (22,32) of the device, so that no
mechanical movement of lens elements is needed.
