Image reading lens system and image reading apparatus
Provided is a fast image reading lens system capable of achieving compactness and satisfactorily correcting various aberrations. The image reading lens system includes, in order from an object side: a positive first lens of which a convex surface faces toward the object side; a second lens formed as a biconcave lens; a third lens formed as a biconvex lens; a positive fourth lens of which a convex surface faces toward an image side; and a negative fifth lens of which a convex surface faces toward the image side. Assuming that a focal length of the whole lens system is f, a focal length of the fourth lens is f 4 , and a space between an image side surface of the fourth lens and an object side surface of the fifth lens on an optical axis is D 8 , the lens system satisfies the following conditional expressions: 0.06<D 8 /f<0.16, and 0.77<f 4 /f<1.81.
