Abstract

An optical imaging system includes: a first lens having a concave image-side surface; a second lens having refractive power; a third lens having a concave image-side surface; a fourth lens having a concave object-side surface or a convex image-side surface; a fifth lens having refractive power; a sixth lens having a concave image-side surface; and a seventh lens having negative refractive power. The first to seventh lenses are sequentially disposed from an object side and 1.62<(N2+N5+N6)/3, where N2 is a refractive index of the second lens, N5 is a refractive index of the fifth lens, and N6 is a refractive index of the sixth lens.

Claims (34)

1. An optical imaging system comprising:

a first lens comprising a concave image-side surface;

a second lens comprising refractive power;

a third lens comprising a concave image-side surface;

a fourth lens comprising a convex object-side surface or a convex image-side surface;

a fifth lens comprising refractive power;

a sixth lens comprising a concave image-side surface; and

a seventh lens comprising negative refractive power,

wherein the first to seventh lenses are sequentially disposed from an object side, and

wherein 0.8<TL/f<1.4, where TL is a distance from the object-side surface of the first lens to the imaging plane, and f is an overall focal length of the optical imaging system.

2. The optical imaging system of claim 1 , wherein the first lens comprises positive refractive power.

3. The optical imaging system of claim 1 , wherein the second lens comprises negative refractive power.

4. The optical imaging system of claim 1 , wherein the third lens comprises positive refractive power.

5. The optical imaging system of claim 1 , wherein an object-side surface of the fifth lens is concave.

6. The optical imaging system of claim 1 , wherein an image-side surface of the seventh lens comprises an inflection point.

7. The optical imaging system of claim 1 , wherein an f-number of the optical imaging system is 1.8 or less.

8. The optical imaging system of claim 1 , wherein 0.75<f123/f<1.3, where f123 is a synthetic focal length of the first, second, and third lenses.

9. The optical imaging system of claim 1 , wherein -8.0<f4567/f<−1.5, where f4567 is a synthetic focal length of the fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh lenses.

10. The optical imaging system of claim 1 , wherein 2.8<ct1/ct2, where ct1 is a thickness of the first lens in an optical axis portion, and ct2 is a thickness of the second lens in an optical axis portion.

11. The optical imaging system of claim 1 , wherein 28<v1-v2<42, where v1 is an Abbe number of the first lens and v2 is an Abbe number of the second lens.

12. An optical imaging system comprising:

a first lens comprising a concave image-side surface;
