Abstract

A lens assembly of optical imaging system includes a first lens element, a second lens element, and a third lens element. The first lens element with positive refractive power has a convex object-side surface near an optical axis. The second lens element with negative refractive power has a concave object-side surface near the optical axis, and is made of plastic. The object-side surface and the image-side surface of the second lens element are aspheric. The third lens element with negative refractive power has an image-side surface being concave near the optical axis and convex away from the optical axis, and is made of plastic. The object-side surface and the image-side surface of the third lens element are aspheric.
