Imaging lens
An imaging lens includes a first lens having positive refractive power; a second lens; a third lens; a fourth lens; a fifth lens; a sixth lens; and a seventh lens, arranged in this order from an object side to an image plane side. The first lens, the second lens, the third lens, the fourth lens, the fifth lens, the sixth lens, and the seventh lens are arranged respectively with a space in between. The fifth lens is formed in a shape so that a surface thereof on the image plane side has a positive curvature radius. The seventh lens is formed in a shape so that a surface thereof on the image plane side and a surface thereof on the object side are aspheric.
