Abstract

A wide-angle lens ( 100 ) includes a front group ( 110 ), an aperture ( 80 ), and a rear group ( 120 ). The front group ( 110 ) includes a first lens ( 10 ), a second lens ( 20 ), and a third lens ( 30 ) arranged in order from a side (La) closest to an object to an image side (Lb). In such a wide-angle lens, to suppress an occurrence of a ghost caused by multiple reflection between a lens surface ( 22 ) of the second lens ( 20 ) on the image side (Lb) and a lens surface ( 31 ) of the third lens ( 30 ) on the object side (La), the sag amount Sag31 (mm) and the diameter D31 (mm) of the lens surface ( 31 ) satisfy the following conditional expression: 0<1Sag31/(D31/2)<0.125.

Claims (29)

1. A wide-angle lens, comprising: a front group; an aperture; and a rear group arranged in order from an object side to an image side, wherein

the second lens is a negative lens of which a lens surface on the image side is a concave curved surface,

the third lens is a positive lens of which a lens surface on the image side is a convex curved surface, and

when a sag amount of a lens surface of the third lens on the object side is Sag31 (mm), and a diameter of the lens surface of the third lens on the object side is D31 (mm), the sag amount Sag31 and the diameter D31 satisfy the following conditional expression:

0<|Sag31/( D 31/2)|<0.125,

and when a sag amount of the lens surface of the second lens on the image side is Sag22 (mm), and a diameter of the lens surface of the second lens on the image side is D22 (mm), the sag amount Sag22 and the diameter D22 satisfy the following conditional expression:

0.400<Sag22/( D 22/2)<1.733.

2.
