Lens system and imaging apparatus
The present disclosure provides a lens system having a stacked structure. The lens system comprises at least: a first lens; a second lens adjacent to the first lens, a first space formed between the second lens and the first lens; and a shim between the first lens and the second lens, the shim having at least one venting hole, the at least one venting hole connecting the first space and a second space outside the first space. The present disclosure also provides an imaging apparatus comprising the lens system described above.
1. A lens system having a stacked structure and comprising at least:
a first lens;
a second lens adjacent to the first lens, a first space formed between the second lens and the first lens; and
a shim between the first lens and the second lens, the shim having at least one venting hole, the at least one venting hole connecting the first space and a second space outside the first space, wherein the shim has a first contact surface with the first lens and a second contact surface with the second lens, the first contact surface and the second contact surface forming an overlap area on the shim, wherein the at least one venting hole extends across the overlap area on the shim, wherein the at least one venting hole has a radial width greater than a radial width of the overlap area.
2. The lens system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one venting hole enables the air to circulate from the first space to the second space when the temperature increases and circulate from the second space to the first space when the temperature decreases.
3. The lens system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one venting hole has the radial width less than a radial width of the shim.
4. The lens system of claim 1 , wherein an outer edge of the at least one venting hole is located at an outer edge of the shim or at a predetermined distance from the outer edge of the shim.
5. The lens system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one venting hole is toward the center of the shim or not toward the center of the shim.
6. The lens system of claim 1 , wherein a shape of the at least one venting hole comprises at least one of the following: V shape, U shape, circular shape, elliptical shape, rectangular shape, and irregular shape.
7. The lens system of claim 1 , further comprising:
a housing for fixing at least the first lens and the second lens,
wherein the second space is formed among an edge of the first lens, an edge of the second lens, and the housing.
8. The lens system of claim 1 , wherein the shim is a film shim.
9. The lens system of claim 1 , wherein the shim is a Soma shim or a Mylar shim.
10. An imaging apparatus comprising the lens system according to claim 1 .
