Abstract

An optical imaging system includes a first lens having positive refractive power and having a convex object-side surface; a second lens having negative refractive power; a third lens having refractive power; a fourth lens having refractive power; a fifth lens having refractive power; a sixth lens having positive refractive power and having a convex image-side surface; and a seventh lens having negative refractive power and having a concave image-side surface, and the first to seventh lenses are disposed in order from an object side. In the optical imaging system, 1<f/f6 and V2<40, where f is a focal length of the optical imaging system, f6 is a focal length of the sixth lens, and V2 is an Abbe number of the second lens.
