Abstract

A photographic lens system enabling reduction in tightness of manufacturing tolerance of lenses, which has five lenses: a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens and a fifth lens sequentially arranged along an optical axis from an object, wherein the first lens has strong positive refractivity, the second lens is a meniscus type lens and has weak positive refractivity, the third lens has upward convex-shaped positive refractivity, the fourth lens has upward convex-shaped negative refractivity, and the fifth lens has negative refractivity, wherein the lens system satisfies a relation, f2/f1>10, wherein f1 is a focal distance of the first lens, and f2 is a focal distance of the second lens.

Claims (21)

1. A photographic lens system enabling reduction in tightness of manufacturing tolerance, comprising: a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens and a fifth lens sequentially arranged along an optical axis from an object, wherein

the first lens has strong positive refractivity, the second lens is a meniscus type lens and has weak positive refractivity, the third lens has upward convex-shaped positive refractivity, the fourth lens has upward convex-shaped negative refractivity, and the fifth lens has negative refractivity; and

the lens system satisfies a relation, f2/f1>10, wherein f1 is a focal distance of the first lens, and f2 is a focal distance of the second lens.

2. The photographic lens system enabling reduction in tightness of manufacturing tolerance as set forth in claim 1 , satisfying a relation, |v2−v4|<5, wherein v2 is an ABBE number of the second lens, and v4 is an ABBE number of the fourth lens.

3. The photographic lens system enabling reduction in tightness of manufacturing tolerance as set forth in claim 1 , satisfying a relation, te/tc<1.35, wherein to is a lens thickness on an effective diameter of a rear surface of the second lens, and tc is a center thickness of the second lens.

4. The photographic lens system enabling reduction in tightness of manufacturing tolerance as set forth in claim 1 , further comprising:

an iris arranged between the first lens and the second lens.

5. The photographic lens system enabling reduction in tightness of manufacturing tolerance as set forth in claim 1 , satisfying a relation, R_L1S1/R_L1S2<0.6, wherein R_L1S1 is a radius of curvature of a front surface of the first lens, and R_L1S2 is a radius of curvature of a rear surface of the first lens.

6. The photographic lens system enabling reduction in tightness of manufacturing tolerance as set forth in claim 1 , satisfying a relation, |R_L2S1−R_L2S2|<0.15, wherein R_L2S1 is a radius of curvature of a front surface of the second lens, and R_L2S2 is a radius of curvature of a rear surface of the second lens.

7. The photographic lens system enabling reduction in tightness of manufacturing tolerance as set forth in claim 1 , satisfying a relation, f2345/f>4, wherein f is a total focal distance of all the lenses, and f2345 is a sum of focal distances of the second lens, the third lens, the fourth lens and the fifth lens.

8. The photographic lens system enabling reduction in tightness of manufacturing tolerance as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the first lens has an aspheric surface on at least one surface, the second lens has aspheric surfaces on opposite surfaces, the third lens has an aspheric surface on at least one surface, the fourth lens has aspheric surfaces on opposite surfaces, and the fifth lens has aspheric surfaces on opposite surfaces, with a plurality of inflection points defined on the aspheric surfaces of the fifth lens.

9. The photographic lens system enabling reduction in tightness of manufacturing tolerance as set forth in claim 1 or 2 , wherein a material of any one of the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, the fourth lens and the fifth lens is different from a material of remaining lenses.

10. A photographic lens system enabling reduction in tightness of manufacturing tolerance, comprising a first lens, an iris, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens and a fifth lens sequentially arranged along an optical axis from an object, wherein

the first lens has strong positive refractivity, the second lens is a meniscus type lens and has weak positive refractivity, the third lens has upward convex-shaped positive refractivity, the fourth lens has upward convex-shaped negative refractivity, and the fifth lens has negative refractivity, and

the lens system satisfies relations, f2/f1>10, and |v2−v4|<5, wherein the fifth lens is an aspheric lens, f1 is a focal distance of the first lens, f2 is a focal distance of the second lens, v2 is an ABBE number of the second lens, and v4 is an ABBE number of the fourth lens.

11. The photographic lens system enabling reduction in tightness of manufacturing tolerance as set forth in claim 10 , satisfying a relation, te/tc<1.35, wherein to is a lens thickness on an effective diameter of a rear surface of the second lens, and tc is a center thickness of the second lens.

12. The photographic lens system enabling reduction in tightness of manufacturing tolerance as set forth in claim 10 , satisfying a relation, R_L1S1/R_L1S2<0.6, wherein R_L1S1 is a radius of curvature of a front surface of the first lens, and R_L1S2 is a radius of curvature of a rear surface of the first lens.

13. The photographic lens system enabling reduction in tightness of manufacturing tolerance as set forth in claim 10 , satisfying a relation, |R_L2S1−R_L2S2|<0.15, wherein R_L2S1 is a radius of curvature of a front surface of the second lens, and R_L2S2 is a radius of curvature of a rear surface of the second lens.

14. The photographic lens system enabling reduction in tightness of manufacturing tolerance as set forth in claim 10 , satisfying a relation, f2345/f>4, wherein f is a total focal distance of all the lenses, and f2345 is a sum of focal distances of the second lens, the third lens, the fourth lens and the fifth lens.
