Abstract

A lens module includes a first lens having positive refractive power, a second lens having positive refractive power, a third lens having negative refractive power, a fourth lens having positive refractive power, a fifth lens having positive or negative refractive power, and a sixth lens having negative refractive power. One or more inflection points may be formed on an image-side surface of the sixth lens.

Claims (54)

1. A lens module comprising:

a first lens having refractive power and a convex object-side surface;

a second lens having refractive power and a convex object-side surface;

a third lens having refractive power and a convex object-side surface;

a fourth lens having refractive power and biconvex surfaces;

a fifth lens having refractive power and a convex image-side surface; and

a sixth lens having refractive power and a concave image-side surface, one or more inflection points being formed on the image-side surface of the sixth lens,

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

wherein a focal length of the first lens is within a range of 5.6 mm to 6.6 mm.

2. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the first lens has a concave image-side surface.

3. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the second lens has a convex image-side surface.

4. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the third lens has a concave image-side surface.

5. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the fifth lens has a concave object-side surface.

6. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the sixth lens has a convex object-side surface.

7. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the refractive power of the fifth lens is negative.

8. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the following Conditional Expression is satisfied:

1.3<f1/f<2.5

where f1 is a focal length of the first lens, and f is an overall focal length of an optical system including the first to sixth lenses.

9. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the following Conditional Expression is satisfied:

32.0<V1-V3

where V1 is an Abbe number of the first lens, and V3 is an Abbe number of the third lens.

10. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the following Conditional Expression is satisfied:

30.0<V1-V4

where V1 is an Abbe number of the first lens, and V4 is an Abbe number of the fourth lens.

11. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the following Conditional Expression is satisfied:

32.0<V1-V5

where V1 is an Abbe number of the first lens, and V5 is an Abbe number of the fifth lens.

12. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the following Conditional Expression is satisfied:

0.9<f2/f

where f2 is a focal length of the second lens, and f is an overall focal length of an optical system including the first to sixth lenses.

13. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the following Conditional Expression is satisfied:

f3/f<−0.9

where f3 is a focal length of the third lens, and f is an overall focal length of an optical system including the first to sixth lenses.

14. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the following Conditional Expression is satisfied:

3.0<f4/f

where f4 is a focal length of the fourth lens, and f is an overall focal length of an optical system including the first to sixth lenses.

15. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the following Conditional Expression is satisfied:

f5/f<−3.0

where f5 is a focal length of the fifth lens, and f is an overall focal length of an optical system including the first to sixth lenses.

16. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the following Conditional Expression is satisfied:

1.1<OAL/f

where OAL is a distance from the object-side surface of the first lens to an image-sensing surface, and f is an overall focal length of an optical system including the first to sixth lenses.

17. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the following Conditional Expression is satisfied:

1.4<f1/f2<5.0

where f1 is a focal length of the first lens, and f2 is a focal length of the second lens.

18. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the following Conditional Expression is satisfied:

f2/f3<0.8

where f2 is a focal length of the second lens, and f3 is a focal length of the third lens.

19. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the following Conditional Expression is satisfied:

0.25<BFL/f<0.35

where BFL (Back Focus Length) is a distance from the image-side surface of the sixth lens to an image-sensing surface, and f is an overall focal length of an optical system including the first to sixth lenses.

20. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein the following Conditional Expression is satisfied:

0.02<D12/f

where D12 is a gap between the first and second lenses, and f is an overall focal length of an optical system including the first to sixth lenses.
