Abstract

An imaging lens is composed of a first lens having a negative meniscus shape with a convex surface on the object side, a negative second lens, a positive third lens, an aperture stop, a negative fourth lens, and a positive fifth lens disposed in order from the object side. The fourth and the fifth lens are cemented with an interface which is convex on the object side and has an aspherical shape. If the radius of curvature is taken as R9 and the focal length of the entire system is taken as f, the imaging lens satisfies a conditional expression given below: 1.0< R 9/ f   (1).

Claims (19)

1. A wide-angle imaging lens composed of a first lens having a negative meniscus shape with a convex surface on the object side, a negative second lens, a positive third lens, an aperture stop, a negative fourth lens, and a positive fifth lens disposed in order from the object side,

wherein the fourth lens and the fifth lens are cemented with an interface which is convex on the object side and has an aspherical shape,

wherein the third lens has a biconvex shape,

wherein the fourth lens has a meniscus shape,

wherein the fifth lens has a biconvex shape, and

the imaging lens satisfies a conditional expressions given below

−3.0< f 2/ f<− 1.5  (3)

2.5< f 3/ f< 3.5  (4-2)

1.69<Nd1  (15)

νd1<56  (16)

where:

f2: the focal length of the second lens

f: the focal length of the entire system

f3: the focal length of the third lens

Nd1: the refractive index of the material of the first lens with respect to the d-line

νd1: the Abbe number of the material of the first lens with respect to the d-line.

2. The wide-angle imaging lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the imaging lens satisfies a conditional expression given below:

2.5< f 3/ f≦ 3.30  (4-3).

3. An imaging apparatus equipped with the wide-angle imaging lens as claimed in claim 1 .
