Abstract

The imaging lens consists of, in order from an object side: a first lens group G 1 ; a diaphragm; and a second lens group G 2 that has a positive refractive power. The first lens group G 1 consists of, in order from the object side, a first A lens group G 1 A that consists of two negative meniscus lenses concave toward an image side, and a first B lens group G 1 B that consists of only one positive lens or a negative lens and a positive lens. The second lens group G 2 consists of, in order from the object side, a biconvex lens, a biconcave lens, one or two biconvex lenses, and a negative meniscus lens that is concave toward the object side. With such a configuration, the imaging lens satisfies predetermined conditional expressions.
