Abstract

The imaging lens includes at least one positive lens that satisfies predetermined conditional expressions (1) to (3) indicating conditions in which dispersion is relatively low and refractive index is high while having a negative rate of change of the refractive index. In a case where a lens that satisfies a conditional expression (4) meaning a low dispersion material is included, the lens that satisfies the conditional expression (4) satisfies a predetermined conditional expression (5).
