  • Publication number: 20190361198
    Abstract: An imaging lens includes a first lens; a second lens; a third lens having positive refractive power; a fourth lens; a fifth lens; and a sixth lens, arranged in this order from an object side to an image plane side. The second lens has a convex surface facing the object side near an optical axis thereof. The sixth lens has a convex surface facing the image plane side near an optical axis thereof. The first lens is arranged so that a surface thereof on the object side is away from an image plane by a specific distance on an optical axis thereof. The second lens is arranged to be away from the third lens by a specific distance on the optical axis thereof. The fourth lens is arranged to be away from the fifth lens by a specific distance on an optical axis thereof.
