Abstract

An optical imaging system includes an optical system including at least six lenses, sequentially disposed from an object side toward an image side, an image sensor configured to convert light incident through the optical system into an electronic signal, and a variable stop configured to change an incident hole diameter and disposed toward the object side of a lens of the optical system closest to the object side, wherein TTL is a distance to an imaging plane of the image sensor from an object-side surface of the lens closest to the object side and 4.7 mm<TTL<6.00 mm, and wherein Ri is a radius of curvature of an object-side surface of a lens of the optical system second closest to the image sensor, Rj is a radius of curvature of an image-side surface of the lens that is second closest to the image sensor, and −0.5<(|Ri|−|Rj|)/(|Ri|+|Rj|)<0.5.

Claims (19)

1. An optical imaging system comprising:

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

a second lens having a negative refractive power, a convex object-side surface, and a concave image-side surface;

a third lens having a convex object-side surface and a concave image-side surface;

a fourth lens having a positive refractive power;

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

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

a seventh lens having a negative refractive power,

wherein the first to seventh lenses are sequentially disposed from an object side of the optical imaging system toward an image side of the optical imaging system,

wherein −0.5<(|Ri|−|Rj|)/(|Ri|+|Rj|)<0.5 is satisfied, where Ri is a radius of curvature of an object-side surface of the sixth lens, and Rj is a radius of curvature of an image-side surface of the sixth lens,

wherein f14>f is satisfied, where f14 is a synthesized focal length of the first to fourth lenses, and f is an overall focal length of the optical imaging system, and

wherein 1.64<Nmax≤1.75 is satisfied, where Nmax is a largest refractive index among a refractive index of the second lens, a refractive index of the third lens, and a refractive index of the fourth lens.

2. The optical imaging system of claim 1 , wherein TTL/IMGHT<2.0 is satisfied, where TTL is a distance from an object-side surface of the first lens to an imaging plane of the optical imaging system, and IMGHT is one half of a diagonal length of the imaging plane.

3. The optical imaging system of claim 1 , wherein FOV≥70° is satisfied, where FOV is an angle of view of the optical imaging system.

4. The optical imaging system of claim 1 , wherein 4.7 mm<TTL<6.00 mm is satisfied, where TTL is a distance from an object-side surface of the first lens to an imaging plane of the optical imaging system.
