Abstract

There is provided an optical system including: a first lens having positive refractive power and having a convex object-side surface; a second lens having positive refractive power; a third lens having refractive power; a fourth lens having refractive power; a fifth lens having refractive power; a sixth lens having refractive power; and a seventh lens having negative refractive power and having a concave image-side surface, wherein the first to seventh lenses are sequentially disposed from an object side, whereby an aberration improvement effect may be increased and a high degree of resolution may be realized.

Claims (24)

1. An optical system comprising:

a first lens having positive refractive power and comprising a convex object-side surface and a concave image-side surface;

a second lens having refractive power;

a third lens having refractive power and comprising a concave image-side surface;

a fourth lens having positive refractive power;

a fifth lens having negative refractive power;

a sixth lens having positive refractive power; and

a seventh lens having negative refractive power,

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

wherein |(r7−r8)/(r7+r8)|<1.4 is satisfied, where r7 is a radius of curvature of an object-side surface of the fourth lens, and r8 is a radius of curvature of an image-side surface of the fourth lens.

2. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein the second lens has a convex object-side surface.

3. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein the third lens has negative refractive power.

4. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein the fourth lens has a convex object-side surface.

5. The optical system of claim 4 , wherein the fourth lens has a convex image-side surface.

6. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein the sixth lens has a convex image-side surface.

7. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein the seventh lens has a concave object-side surface.

8. The optical system of claim 7 , wherein the seventh lens has a concave image-side surface.

9. The optical system of claim 1 , further comprising an image sensor converting an image of a subject incident thereon through the first to seventh lenses into an electrical signal,

wherein IMH/EPD<2.0 is satisfied, where IMH is a diagonal length of the image sensor, and EPD is an entrance pupil diameter of the optical system.

10. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein BFL/TTL<0.25 is satisfied, where BFL is a distance from an image-side surface of the seventh lens to an imaging surface, and TTL is a distance from an object-side surface of the first lens to the imaging surface.

11. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein TTL/F<1.2 is satisfied, where TTL is a distance from an object-side surface of the first lens to an imaging surface, and F is an overall focal length of the optical system.

12. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein |Nd4−Nd6|<0.1 is satisfied, where Nd4 is a refractive index of the fourth lens, and Nd6 is a refractive index of the sixth lens.

13. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein r14/F>0.3 is satisfied, where r14 is a radius of curvature of an image-side surface of the seventh lens, and F is an overall focal length of the optical system.

14. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein F12/F>0.5 is satisfied, where F12 is a composite focal length of the first and second lenses, and F is an overall focal length of the optical system.
