Abstract

A photographing lens assembly includes five lens elements, in order from an object side to an image side: a first lens element, a second lens element, a third lens element, a fourth lens element and a fifth lens element. The first lens element with positive refractive power has an object-side surface being convex in a paraxial region. The second lens element has an object-side surface being concave in a paraxial region. The third lens element has an object-side surface being convex in a paraxial region. The fourth lens element has an object-side surface being concave in a paraxial region, wherein two surfaces thereof are both aspheric. The fifth lens element has an object-side surface and an image-side surface being both aspheric. At least one surface of the lens elements has at least one inflection point.

Claims (23)

1. A photographing lens assembly comprising a total of five lens elements, the five lens elements being, in order from an object side to an image side, a first lens element, a second lens element, a third lens element, a fourth lens element and a fifth lens element;

wherein each of the five lens elements has an object-side surface facing toward the object side and an image-side surface facing toward the image side, the first lens element has positive refractive power, the object-side surface of the third lens element is convex in a paraxial region thereof, the image-side surface of the third lens element is concave in a paraxial region thereof, the fourth lens element has negative refractive power, the object-side surface of the fourth lens element is concave in a paraxial region thereof, at least one surface of the five lens elements has at least one inflection point, and a central thickness of the first lens element is a maximum among all central thicknesses of the five lens elements;

wherein a maximum image height of the photographing lens assembly is ImgH, a focal length of the photographing lens assembly is f, and the following condition is satisfied:

0.10<ImgH/ f≤ 0.29.

2. The photographing lens assembly of claim 1 , wherein the fifth lens element has positive refractive power.

3. The photographing lens assembly of claim 1 , wherein the image-side surface of the fourth lens element is convex in a paraxial region thereof.

4. The photographing lens assembly of claim 1 , wherein the object-side surface of the fifth lens element is convex in a paraxial region thereof, and the image-side surface of the fifth lens element has at least one convex shape in an off-axial region thereof.

5. The photographing lens assembly of claim 1 , wherein an Abbe number of the first lens element is V1, an Abbe number of the second lens element is V2, an Abbe number of the third lens element is V3, an Abbe number of the fourth lens element is V4, an Abbe number of the fifth lens element is V5, and the following condition is satisfied:

1.0<( V 2+ V 3+ V 4+ V 5)/ V 1<2.50.

6. The photographing lens assembly of claim 1 , wherein a maximum effective radius of the object-side surface of the first lens element is Y11, a maximum effective radius of the image-side surface of the fifth lens element is Y52, and the following condition is satisfied:

0.95< Y 11/ Y 52<1.30.

7. The photographing lens assembly of claim 1 , wherein a curvature radius of the object-side surface of the first lens element is R1, a curvature radius of the object-side surface of the third lens element is R5, a curvature radius of the object-side surface of the fourth lens element is R7, the focal length of the photographing lens assembly is f, and the following conditions are satisfied:

0< R 5/ f< 0.90; and

−3.0< R 1/ R 7<1.30.

8. The photographing lens assembly of claim 1 , wherein an entrance pupil diameter of the photographing lens assembly is EPD, the maximum image height of the photographing lens assembly is ImgH, and the following condition is satisfied:

1.0<EPD/ImgH<1.80.

9. The photographing lens assembly of claim 1 , wherein there are at least three of the five lens elements with an Abbe number smaller than 30.0.

10. The photographing lens assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a reflective surface.

11. An image capturing unit, comprising:

the photographing lens assembly of claim 1 ; and

an image sensor, wherein the image sensor is disposed on an image surface of the photographing lens assembly.

12. An electronic device, comprising:

the image capturing unit of claim 11 .
