Photographing lens having an eccentricity adjusting device

1. A photographing lens comprising:

an eccentricity adjusting frame which holds an eccentricity adjusting lens group serving as a part of a photographing optical system of said photographing lens;

a lens support frame, an axis of which is coincident with a predetermined optical axis of said photographing optical system, supporting said eccentricity adjusting frame in a manner to allow said eccentricity adjusting frame to move in a plane orthogonal to said predetermined optical axis during an assembly-stage of the photographing lens; and

a fixed aperture member having a circular aperture, said fixed aperture member being integrally formed with said lens support frame so that a center of said circular aperture coincides with said axis of said lens support frame.

2. The photographing lens according to claim 1 , wherein said fixed aperture member and said lens support frame are provided as separate members, and said fixed aperture member is fixed to said lens support frame.

3. The photographing lens according to claim 1 , wherein said fixed aperture member and said lens support frame are molded in one body.

4. The photographing lens according to claim 1 , wherein said photographing lens comprises a zoom lens,

wherein said eccentricity adjusting lens group includes a first lens group of said photographing optical system, and

wherein said lens support frame includes a first lens group support frame which supports said first lens group and which moves in said optical axis direction in a zooming operation of said zoom lens.

5. The photographing lens according to claim 1 , wherein said lens support frame and said eccentricity adjusting frame comprise a first orthogonal surface and a second orthogonal surface which face each other in said optical axis direction, respectively, and are biased in opposite directions to keep said first orthogonal surface and said second orthogonal surface in contact with each other.

6. The photographing lens according to claim 5 , further comprising a biasing member, fixed to said lens support frame, for biasing said first orthogonal surface and said second orthogonal surface in said opposite directions.

7. The photographing lens according to claim 1 , wherein said fixed aperture member is in the shape of a plate which lies in a plane orthogonal to said optical axis.

8. The photographing lens according to claim 1 , further comprising a shutter unit positioned behind said fixed aperture member adjacent thereto.

9. The photographing lens according to claim 1 , wherein said eccentricity adjusting lens group is screw-engaged in said eccentricity adjusting frame so that a position of said eccentricity adjusting lens group relative to said eccentricity adjusting frame in said optical axis direction can be adjusted by rotating said eccentricity adjusting lens group relative to said eccentricity adjusting frame in an adjusting operation during assembly of said zoom lens.

10. A photographing lens comprising:

a lens holder which holds a frontmost lens group of a photographing optical system;

a lens-holder support frame which supports said lens holder in a manner to allow said lens holder to move in a plane orthogonal to an optical axis of said photographing optical system during an assembly-stage of the photographing lens, said lens holder and said lens-holder support frame being concentrically arranged; and

a fixed aperture member having a circular aperture, said fixed aperture member being integrally formed with said lens-holder support frame so that a center of said circular aperture coincides with an axis of said lens-holder support frame.
