Abstract

A lens including a first lens group and a second lens group is provided. The first lens group is disposed between a magnified side and a minified side. The second lens group is disposed between the first lens group and the minified side. The lens includes six or less lens elements, and at least four of the six or less lens elements are aspheric lenses. A field of view of the lens is in a range between 100 degrees and 165 degrees, and the second lens group has at least one spherical lens.

Claims (28)

1. A lens, comprising:

a first lens group, disposed between a magnified side and a minified side; and

a second lens group, disposed between the first lens group and the minified side,

wherein the lens comprises six or less lens elements, at least four of the six or less lens elements are aspheric lenses, a field of view of the lens is within a range between 100 degrees and 165 degrees, and the second lens group has at least one spherical lens,

wherein the first lens group has a negative refractive power, and the second lens group has a positive refractive power,

wherein a total track length of the lens is equal to or smaller than 16.1 mm.

2. The lens as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising an aperture stop disposed between the first lens group and the second lens group.

3. The lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first lens group comprises a first lens element, a second lens element, and a third lens element sequentially arranged from the magnified side toward the minified side, the second lens group comprises a fourth lens element, a fifth lens element, and a sixth lens element sequentially arranged from the magnified side toward the minified side, and the fourth lens element and the fifth lens element are aspheric lenses.

4. The lens as claimed in claim 3 , wherein refractive powers of the first lens element to the sixth lens element are respectively negative, negative, positive, positive, negative, and positive.

5. The lens as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the first lens element, the second lens element, and the third lens element are aspheric lenses.

6. The lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the lens comprises at least four plastic lens elements, and the lens does not comprise a cemented lens.

7. The lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a lens element of the second lens group closest to the first lens group has an Abbe number greater than 70.

8. A lens, comprising:

a first lens group, disposed between a magnified side and a minified side; and

a second lens group, disposed between the first lens group and the minified side,

wherein the lens comprises six or less lens elements, at least four of the six or less lens elements are aspheric lenses, a field of view of the lens is within a range between 100 degrees and 165 degrees, and the second lens group comprises a lens element whose Abbe number is greater than 70,

wherein the first lens group has a negative refractive power, and the second lens group has a positive refractive power,

wherein a total track length of the lens is equal to or smaller than 16.1 mm.

9. The lens as claimed in claim 8 , further comprising an aperture stop disposed between the first lens group and the second lens group.

10. The lens as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the first lens group comprises a first lens element, a second lens element, and a third lens element sequentially arranged from the magnified side toward the minified side, the second lens group comprises a fourth lens element, a fifth lens element, and a sixth lens element sequentially arranged from the magnified side toward the minified side, and the fourth lens element and the fifth lens element are aspheric lenses.

11. The lens as claimed in claim 10 , wherein refractive powers of the first lens element to the sixth lens element are respectively negative, negative, positive, positive, negative, and positive.

12. The lens as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the first lens element, the second lens element, and the third lens element are aspheric lenses.

13. The lens as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the lens comprises at least four plastic lens elements, and the lens does not comprise a cemented lens.

14. The lens as claimed in claim 8 , wherein a lens element of the second lens group closest to the first lens group has an Abbe number greater than 70.

15. The lens as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the number of lens elements in the lens is six, the fourth element counted from the magnified side toward the minified side is a spherical lens, and a lens element closest to the minified side is an aspheric lens.

16. The lens as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the number of lens elements of the first lens group is two, and the number of lens elements of the second lens group is three.

17. The lens as claimed in claim 16 , wherein the first lens group comprises a first lens element and a second lens element sequentially arranged from the magnified side toward the minified side, the second lens group comprises a third lens element, a fourth lens element, and a fifth lens element sequentially arranged from the magnified side toward the minified side, and the fourth lens element and the fifth lens element are aspheric lenses.

18. The lens as claimed in claim 17 , wherein the lens satisfies one of the following conditions: (1) refractive powers of the first lens element to the fifth lens element are respectively negative, positive, positive, negative, and positive, and (2) the first element and the second lens element are aspheric lens elements.
