Abstract

The invention discloses a six-piece optical lens for capturing image and a six-piece optical module for capturing image. In order from an object side to an image side, the optical lens along the optical axis comprises a first lens element having a convex object-side surface and a convex image-side surface; a second lens element having a convex object-side surface and a concave image-side surface; a third lens element with positive refractive power having a convex object-side surface and a convex image-side surface; a fourth lens element with refractive power; a fifth lens element having a convex image-side surface; and a sixth lens element having a concave image-side; and at least one of the image-side surface and object-side surface of each of the six lens elements are aspheric. The optical lens can reduce the sensitivity for use in compact cameras with camera functionalities.
