Abstract

There is provided an imaging lens with excellent optical characteristics which satisfies demand of a low profile and a low F-number. An imaging lens comprises in order from an object side to an image side, a first lens with positive refractive power being formed in a meniscus shape having an object-side surface being convex in a paraxial region, a second lens with positive refractive power in a paraxial region, a third lens with negative refractive power in a paraxial region, a fourth lens with positive refractive power in a paraxial region, a fifth lens having aspheric surfaces on both sides, and a sixth lens with negative refractive power having an image-side surface being concave in a paraxial region, and predetermined conditional expressions are satisfied.

a third lens with negative refractive power in a paraxial region,

a fourth lens with positive refractive power in a paraxial region,

a fifth lens having aspheric surfaces on both sides, and

a sixth lens with negative refractive power having an image-side surface being concave in a paraxial region, wherein the following conditional expressions (1), (2) and (4) are satisfied:

0.30 <f 1/ f 4<1.85  (1)
