Image pickup device and image pickup apparatus
The maximum principal ray incident angle to an image surface is reduced in an image pickup device provided with an image pickup element. The image pickup device includes an image pickup lens, the image pickup element, and a cover glass. In the image pickup device, the cover glass is stuck on the image pickup element without containing air between them. In addition, in the image pickup device, the maximum incident angle of principal rays from the image pickup lens, to the cover glass is larger than 35 degrees. Furthermore, in the image pickup device, the refractive angle of the cover glass is at least 5 degrees smaller than the maximum incident angle.
1. An image pickup device, comprising:
an image pickup lens;

a half field angle of the image pickup lens is one of 39 degrees, 63 degrees, or 92 degrees,
a maximum incident angle of principal rays from the image pickup lens to the cover glass is larger than 35 degrees, and
a refractive angle of the cover glass is at least five degrees smaller than the maximum incident angle of the principal rays.
2. The image pickup device according to claim 1 , wherein
the image pickup lens includes a first lens, a second lens, a diaphragm, a third lens, and a fourth lens arranged in sequence from an object side to an image surface side,
each of the first lens and the fourth lens is a spherical negative meniscus lens,
the first lens has a first convex face that faces the object side,
each of the second lens and the third lens is an aspherical lens having positive refractive power,
the aspherical lens having convex faces on the object side and the image surface side, and
the fourth lens has a second convex face that faces the image surface side.
3. The image pickup device according to claim 1 , wherein
the image pickup lens includes a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a diaphragm, a fourth lens, and a fifth lens arranged in sequence from an object side to an image surface side,
the first lens is a spherical negative meniscus lens,
the first lens has a first convex face that faces the object side,
