Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a wide-angle lens. Background Technology

[0002] As a wide-angle lens for vehicle cameras, there is a conventional wide-angle lens that includes a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, an aperture, a fifth lens, a sixth lens, and a seventh lens arranged sequentially from the object side (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

[0003] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2018-60153

[0004] In practice, in order to achieve good optical characteristics and obtain a clear image, it is desirable to be able to easily and appropriately correct the aberrations of the wide-angle lens. On the other hand, sometimes the overall size of the space in a vehicle for mounting the wide-angle lens is limited. Therefore, it is desirable to achieve miniaturization of the wide-angle lens as a whole. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present invention was made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and its purpose is to provide a wide-angle lens that can easily and appropriately correct the aberrations of the wide-angle lens, and can easily achieve the miniaturization of the wide-angle lens as a whole.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a wide-angle lens comprising a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, an aperture, a fifth lens, a sixth lens, and a seventh lens arranged sequentially from the object side. When the radius of curvature of the object-side lens surface of the third lens is set to R31 and the radius of curvature of the image-side lens surface of the third lens is set to R32, the following relationship is satisfied: 0.300 < (R31 + R32) / (R31 - R32) < 3.500.

[0007] According to the present invention, the wide-angle lens satisfies the relationship 0.300 < (R31 + R32) / (R31 - R32) < 3.500. Therefore, the value of the radius of curvature of the object-side lens surface of the third lens and the value of the radius of curvature of the image-side lens surface of the third lens will not be too close. Thus, the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens can be ensured, aberrations can be appropriately corrected, and the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens can be achieved.

[0008] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens of the present invention, the following relationship is preferably satisfied: 1.000 < (R31 + R32) / (R31 - R32) < 3.000.

[0009] The wide-angle lens according to the present invention satisfies the relationship 1.000 < (R31 + R32) / (R31 - R32) < 3.000. Therefore, it can better ensure the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, properly correct aberrations, and further achieve miniaturization of the wide-angle lens as a whole.

[0010] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens of the present invention, the following relationship is preferably satisfied: 1.000 < (R31 + R32) / (R31 - R32) < 2.500.

[0011] The wide-angle lens according to the present invention satisfies the relationship 1.000 < (R31 + R32) / (R31 - R32) < 2.500. Therefore, it can further ensure the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately correct aberrations, and further realize the miniaturization of the wide-angle lens as a whole.

[0012] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens of the present invention, it is preferable that when the focal distance of the third lens is set to f3 and the focal distance of the entire wide-angle lens is set to f, the following relationship is satisfied: 3.000 < f3 / f < 12.500.

[0013] The wide-angle lens according to the present invention satisfies the relationship f3 / f > 3.000, thus avoiding excessive positive optical power. As a result, various chromatic aberrations such as field curvature, magnification chromatic aberration, and coma chromatic aberration can be appropriately corrected, and excellent optical characteristics can be achieved. On the other hand, it satisfies the relationship f3 / f < 12.500, thus reducing the lens diameter and the distance between the object and the image, thereby enabling the miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

[0014] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens of the present invention, the following relationship is preferably satisfied: 5.000 < f3 / f < 10.000.

[0015] The wide-angle lens according to the present invention satisfies the relationship 5.000 < f3 / f < 10.000, thus enabling further excellent optical characteristics and further miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

[0016] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens of the present invention, it is preferable that when the radius of curvature of the object-side lens surface of the fourth lens is set to R41 and the radius of curvature of the image-side lens surface of the fourth lens is set to R42, the following relationship is satisfied: 0.300 < (R41 + R42) / (R41 - R42) < 3.500.

[0017] According to the present invention, the wide-angle lens satisfies the relationship 0.300 < (R41 + R42) / (R41 - R42) < 3.500. Therefore, the value of the radius of curvature of the object-side lens surface of the fourth lens and the value of the radius of curvature of the image-side lens surface of the fourth lens will not be too close. Thus, the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens can be ensured, aberrations can be appropriately corrected, and the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens can be achieved.

[0018] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens of the present invention, the following relationship is preferably satisfied: 1.000 < (R41 + R42) / (R41 - R42) < 3.000.

[0019] The wide-angle lens according to the present invention satisfies the relationship 1.000 < (R41 + R42) / (R41 - R42) < 3.000. Therefore, it can better ensure the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, properly correct aberrations, and further achieve miniaturization of the wide-angle lens as a whole.

[0020] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens of the present invention, the following relationship is preferably satisfied: 1.000 < (R41 + R42) / (R41 - R42) < 2.000.

[0021] The wide-angle lens according to the present invention satisfies the relationship 1.000 < (R41 + R42) / (R41 - R42) < 2.000. Therefore, it can further ensure the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately correct aberrations, and further realize the miniaturization of the wide-angle lens as a whole.

[0022] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens of the present invention, it is preferable that when the focal distance of the fourth lens is set to f4 and the focal distance of the wide-angle lens as a whole is set to f, the following relationship is satisfied: 4.000 < f4 / f < 7.500.

[0023] The wide-angle lens according to the present invention satisfies the relationship f4 / f > 4.000, thus avoiding excessive positive optical focal length. As a result, it is easy to appropriately correct various aberrations such as field curvature, chromatic aberration, and coma, thereby achieving excellent optical characteristics. On the other hand, it satisfies the relationship f4 / f < 7.000, thus reducing the lens diameter and the distance between the object and the image, thereby achieving miniaturization of the wide-angle lens as a whole.

[0024] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens of the present invention, the following relationship is preferably satisfied: 4.500 < f4 / f < 6.000.

[0025] The wide-angle lens according to the present invention satisfies the relationship 4.500 < f4 / f < 6.000. Therefore, it is easier to properly correct various aberrations such as field curvature, chromatic aberration, and coma, thereby achieving excellent optical characteristics. Furthermore, it can further reduce the lens diameter and the distance between the object and the image, thereby achieving the miniaturization of the wide-angle lens as a whole.

[0026] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens of the present invention, it is preferable that when the object-image distance of the wide-angle lens is set as d and the focal distance of the entire wide-angle lens is set as f, the following relationship is satisfied: 11.000 < d / f < 15.000.

[0027] The wide-angle lens according to the present invention satisfies the relationship d / f > 11.000, thus making it easy to appropriately correct various aberrations and thereby easily obtain excellent optical characteristics; on the other hand, it satisfies the relationship d / f < 15.000, thus preventing the overall length of the lens system from becoming too long while suppressing the lens system from becoming too large.

[0028] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens of the present invention, it is preferable that the sixth lens and the seventh lens constitute a combined lens, wherein the first lens is a negative lens with a concave image-side lens surface, the second lens is a negative lens with a concave image-side lens surface, the third lens is a positive lens with a convex image-side lens surface, the fourth lens is a positive lens with a convex image-side lens surface, the fifth lens is a positive lens with a convex object-side lens surface and a convex image-side lens surface, the sixth lens is a negative lens with a concave image-side lens surface, and the seventh lens is a positive lens with a convex object-side lens surface and a convex image-side lens surface.

[0029] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens of the present invention, it is preferable that the first lens and the fifth lens are glass lenses, and the second lens, the third lens, the fourth lens, the sixth lens and the seventh lens are plastic lenses.

[0030] (Invention Effects)

[0031] According to the present invention, when the radius of curvature of the object-side lens surface of the third lens is set to R31 and the radius of curvature of the image-side lens surface of the third lens is set to R32, the relationship 0.300 < (R31 + R32) / (R31 - R32) < 3.500 is satisfied. Therefore, the value of the radius of curvature of the object-side lens surface of the third lens and the value of the radius of curvature of the image-side lens surface of the third lens will not be too close. Thus, the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens can be ensured, the aberration can be appropriately corrected, and the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens can be achieved.

The sixth lens 160 and the seventh lens 170 are bonded together with an adhesive to form a joint lens.

[0091] Here, the first lens 110 is a lens with negative optical power (referred to as a negative lens) whose convex surface (first surface 1) faces the object side L1 and whose concave surface (second surface 2) faces the image side L2. In this embodiment, the first lens 110 is a glass lens in which the first surface 1 and the second surface 2 are spherical.

[0094] The fourth lens 140 is a lens with positive optical power, having a concave surface (seventh surface 7) facing the object side L1 and a convex surface (eighth surface 8) facing the image side L2. In this embodiment, the fourth lens 140 is a plastic lens with aspherical surfaces for the seventh surface 7 and the eighth surface 8.

[0095] The fifth lens 150 is a lens with positive optical power, having a convex surface (tenth surface 10) facing the object side L1 and a convex surface (eleventh surface 11) facing the image side L2. In this embodiment, the fifth lens 150 is made of a glass lens.

In this embodiment, the sixth lens 160 is a plastic lens with aspherical surfaces for the twelfth surface 12 and the thirteenth surface 13.

[0097] The seventh lens 170 is a lens with positive optical power, where the convex surface (thirteenth surface 13) faces the object side L1 and the convex surface (fourteenth surface 14) faces the image side L2. In this embodiment, the seventh lens 170 is a plastic lens where the thirteenth surface 13 and the fourteenth surface 14 are aspherical.

[0108] In Tables 2-1 and 2-2 above, when the lens surface is a convex surface protruding towards the object side or a concave surface recessed towards the object side, the radius of curvature is set to a positive value; when the lens surface is a convex surface protruding towards the image side or a concave surface recessed towards the image side, the radius of curvature is set to a negative value.

[0109] Furthermore, Tables 2-1 and 2-2 above show the aspherical coefficients A4, A6, A8, A10, A12, A14, and A16 for each aspherical surface shape, expressed by the following formula (Mathematical Formula 1). In the following formula, the sag (the axis in the direction of the optical axis) is set as Z, the height in the direction perpendicular to the optical axis (the height of the ray) is set as r, the conic coefficient is set as K, and the reciprocal of the radius of curvature is set as c.

[0110] [Mathematical Expression 1]

[0111]

[0112] Here, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the radius of curvature R31 of the object-side lens surface (fifth surface 5) of the third lens 130 is -11.789 mm, and the radius of curvature R32 of the image-side lens surface (sixth surface 6) of the third lens 130 is -2.855 mm. Therefore, the following condition 1 is satisfied:

[0113] 0.300<(R31+R32) / (R31-R32)<3.500.

[0114] In this embodiment, condition 1 is satisfied. Therefore, the value of the radius of curvature of the object-side lens surface of the third lens and the value of the radius of curvature of the image-side lens surface of the third lens will not be too close. This ensures the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately corrects aberrations, and enables the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

[0115] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 1.000 < (R31 + R32) / (R31 - R32) < 3.000 is satisfied. Therefore, the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens can be better ensured, aberrations can be properly corrected, and the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens can be achieved.

[0116] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the focal distance f3 of the third lens 130 is 6.742 mm, and the focal distance f of the wide-angle lens as a whole is 1.023 mm. Therefore, the following condition 2 is satisfied:

[0117] 3.000 < f3 / f < 12.500.

[0118] In condition 2, if f3 / f is below 3.000, the positive optical power becomes too strong, making it difficult to properly correct various chromatic aberrations such as field curvature, magnification chromatic aberration, and coma chromatic aberration, and making it difficult to achieve excellent optical characteristics; on the other hand, if f3 / f is above 12.500, the lens diameter and the distance between the object and the image are too large, making it difficult to miniaturize wide-angle lenses.

[0119] In contrast, in this embodiment, since condition 2 is satisfied, it has the advantages of achieving excellent optical characteristics and miniaturizing the wide-angle lens.

[0120] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 5.000 < f3 / f < 10.000 is satisfied, thus having the advantages of achieving better optical characteristics and miniaturization of wide-angle lenses.

[0121] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the radius of curvature R41 of the object-side lens surface (seventh surface 7) of the fourth lens 140 is -13.315 mm, and the radius of curvature R42 of the image-side lens surface (eighth surface 8) of the fourth lens 140 is -2.589 mm. Therefore, the following condition 3 is satisfied:

[0122] 0.300<(R41+R42) / (R41-R42)<3.500.

[0123] In this embodiment, condition 3 is satisfied. Therefore, the value of the radius of curvature of the object-side lens surface of the fourth lens and the value of the radius of curvature of the image-side lens surface of the fourth lens will not be too close. This ensures the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately corrects aberrations, and enables the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

[0124] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 1.000 < (R41 + R42) / (R41 - R42) < 3.000 is satisfied. Therefore, the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens can be better ensured, aberrations can be properly corrected, and the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens can be achieved.

[0125] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the focal distance f4 of the fourth lens 140 is 4.923 mm, and the focal distance f of the entire wide-angle lens is 1.023 mm. Therefore, the following condition 4 is satisfied:

[0126] 4.000 < f4 / f < 7.500.

[0127] In condition 4, if f4 / f is below 4.000, the positive optical power becomes too strong, making it difficult to properly correct various chromatic aberrations such as field curvature, magnification chromatic aberration, and coma chromatic aberration, and making it difficult to achieve excellent optical characteristics; on the other hand, if f4 / f is above 7.500, the lens diameter and the distance between the object and the image are too large, making it difficult to miniaturize wide-angle lenses.

[0128] In contrast, in this embodiment, since condition 4 is satisfied, it has the advantages of achieving excellent optical characteristics and miniaturizing the wide-angle lens.

[0129] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 4.500 < f4 / f < 6.000 is satisfied, thus having the advantages of achieving better optical characteristics and miniaturization of wide-angle lenses.

[0130] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the object-image distance d is 13.611 mm, and the overall focal distance f of the lens system is 1.023 mm. Therefore, the following condition 5 is satisfied:

[0131] 11.000 < d / f < 15.000

[0132] In condition 5, if d / f is below 11.000, it is not easy to properly correct various aberrations. On the other hand, if d / f is above 15.000, the overall length of the lens system becomes too long.

[0133] In contrast, in this embodiment, since condition 5 is satisfied, it is easy to properly correct various aberrations, easily obtain excellent optical characteristics, and suppress the lens system from becoming too large while avoiding the overall length of the lens system becoming too long.

[0134] In summary, in this embodiment, by constructing the wide-angle lens 1000 in the manner described above, as follows... Figures 2A to 4L As shown, it can ensure the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately correct aberrations, and achieve overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

[0137] like Figure 5 As shown, the wide-angle lens 1000 includes a first lens 110, a second lens 120, a third lens 130, a fourth lens 140, an aperture 180, a fifth lens 150, a sixth lens 160, and a seventh lens 170 arranged sequentially from the object side (L1 side). The sixth lens 160 and the seventh lens 170 are bonded together with an adhesive to form a joint lens.

[0138] Since the basic structure of the wide-angle lens 1000 in this embodiment (i.e., whether the first lens 110, the second lens 120, the third lens 130, the fourth lens 140, the fifth lens 150, the sixth lens 160, and the seventh lens 170 have positive or negative optical power, whether they are glass lenses or plastic lenses, whether the object-side surface and the image-side surface are convex or concave, and whether they are spherical or aspherical) is the same as that of the wide-angle lens in Embodiment 1, it will not be elaborated on here.

[0139] In addition, such as Figure 5 As shown, similar to Embodiment 1, a light-shielding sheet 190 is provided between the second lens 120 and the fourth lens 130, a filter 200 is provided on the image side of the seventh lens 170, and an image sensor 300 is provided on the image side of the filter 200.

[0149] In Tables 4-1 and 4-2 above, when the lens surface is a convex surface protruding towards the object side or a concave surface recessed towards the object side, the radius of curvature is set to a positive value; when the lens surface is a convex surface protruding towards the image side or a concave surface recessed towards the image side, the radius of curvature is set to a negative value.

[0150] Furthermore, Tables 4-1 and 2-2 above show the aspherical coefficients A4, A6, A8, A10, A12, A14, and A16 when each face has an aspherical shape, as represented by the mathematical formula 1 above.

[0151] Here, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the radius of curvature R31 of the object-side lens surface (fifth surface 5) of the third lens 130 is -9.695mm, and the radius of curvature R32 of the image-side lens surface (sixth surface 6) of the third lens 130 is -2.596mm. Therefore, the following condition 1 is satisfied:

[0152] 0.300<(R31+R32) / (R31-R32)<3.500.

[0153] In this embodiment, condition 1 is satisfied. Therefore, the value of the radius of curvature of the object-side lens surface of the third lens and the value of the radius of curvature of the image-side lens surface of the third lens will not be too close. This ensures the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately corrects aberrations, and enables the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

[0154] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 1.000 < (R31 + R32) / (R31 - R32) < 3.000 is satisfied. Therefore, the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens can be better ensured, aberrations can be properly corrected, and the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens can be achieved.

[0155] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the focal distance f3 of the third lens 130 is 6.297 mm, and the focal distance f of the wide-angle lens as a whole is 1.062 mm. Therefore, the following condition 2 is satisfied:

[0156] 3.000 < f3 / f < 12.500.

[0157] In condition 2, if f3 / f is below 3.000, the positive optical power becomes too strong, making it difficult to properly correct various chromatic aberrations such as field curvature, magnification chromatic aberration, and coma chromatic aberration, and making it difficult to achieve excellent optical characteristics; on the other hand, if f3 / f is above 12.500, the lens diameter and the distance between the object and the image are too large, making it difficult to miniaturize wide-angle lenses.

[0158] In contrast, in this embodiment, since condition 2 is satisfied, it has the advantages of achieving excellent optical characteristics and miniaturizing the wide-angle lens.

[0159] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 5.000 < f3 / f < 10.000 is satisfied, thus having the advantages of achieving better optical characteristics and miniaturization of wide-angle lenses.

[0160] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the radius of curvature R41 of the object-side lens surface (seventh surface 7) of the fourth lens 140 is -4.818 mm, and the radius of curvature R42 of the image-side lens surface (eighth surface 8) of the fourth lens 140 is -2.244 mm. Therefore, the following condition 3 is satisfied:

[0161] 0.300<(R41+R42) / (R41-R42)<3.500.

[0162] In this embodiment, condition 3 is satisfied. Therefore, the value of the radius of curvature of the object-side lens surface of the fourth lens and the value of the radius of curvature of the image-side lens surface of the fourth lens will not be too close. This ensures the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately corrects aberrations, and enables the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

[0163] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 1.000 < (R41 + R42) / (R41 - R42) < 3.000 is satisfied. Therefore, the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens can be better ensured, aberrations can be properly corrected, and the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens can be achieved.

[0164] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the focal distance f4 of the fourth lens 140 is 5.955mm, and the focal distance f of the entire wide-angle lens is 1.062mm. Therefore, the following condition 4 is satisfied:

[0165] 4.000 < f4 / f < 7.500.

[0166] In condition 4, if f4 / f is below 4.000, the positive optical power becomes too strong, making it difficult to properly correct various chromatic aberrations such as field curvature, magnification chromatic aberration, and coma chromatic aberration, and making it difficult to achieve excellent optical characteristics; on the other hand, if f4 / f is above 7.500, the lens diameter and the distance between the object and the image are too large, making it difficult to miniaturize wide-angle lenses.

[0167] In contrast, in this embodiment, since condition 4 is satisfied, it has the advantages of achieving excellent optical characteristics and miniaturizing the wide-angle lens.

[0168] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 4.500 < f4 / f < 6.000 is satisfied, thus having the advantages of achieving better optical characteristics and miniaturization of wide-angle lenses.

[0169] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the object-image distance d is 13.610 mm, and the overall focal distance f of the lens system is 1.062 mm. Therefore, the following condition 5 is satisfied:

[0170] 11.000 < d / f < 15.000

[0171] In condition 5, if d / f is below 11.000, it is not easy to properly correct various aberrations. On the other hand, if d / f is above 15.000, the overall length of the lens system becomes too long.

[0172] In contrast, in this embodiment, since condition 5 is satisfied, it is easy to properly correct various aberrations, easily obtain excellent optical characteristics, and suppress the lens system from becoming too large while avoiding the overall length of the lens system becoming too long.

[0173] In summary, in this embodiment, by constructing the wide-angle lens 1000 in the manner described above, as follows... Figures 6A to 8L As shown, it can ensure the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately correct aberrations, and achieve overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

Here, in Figure 10A , Figure 10B , Figure 11A , Figure 11B , Figures 12A to 12L In the diagram, the correlation curve for red light R (wavelength 656nm) is labeled R, the correlation curve for green light G (wavelength 588nm) is labeled G, and the correlation curve for blue light B (wavelength 486nm) is labeled B. T represents correlation with the meridional plane, and S represents correlation with the sagittal plane. Furthermore, in... Figures 12A to 12L In the figure, the maximum scale of the vertical axis is ±50.000 μm.

[0176] like Figure 9 As shown, the wide-angle lens 1000 includes a first lens 110, a second lens 120, a third lens 130, a fourth lens 140, an aperture 180, a fifth lens 150, a sixth lens 160, and a seventh lens 170 arranged sequentially from the object side (L1 side). The sixth lens 160 and the seventh lens 170 are bonded together with an adhesive to form a joint lens.

[0177] Since the basic structure of the wide-angle lens 1000 in this embodiment (i.e., whether the first lens 110, the second lens 120, the third lens 130, the fourth lens 140, the fifth lens 150, the sixth lens 160, and the seventh lens 170 have positive or negative optical power, whether they are glass lenses or plastic lenses, whether the object-side surface and the image-side surface are convex or concave, and whether they are spherical or aspherical) is the same as that of the wide-angle lens in Embodiment 1, it will not be elaborated on here.

[0178] In addition, such as Figure 9 As shown, similar to Embodiment 1, a light-shielding sheet 190 is provided between the second lens 120 and the fourth lens 130, a filter 200 is provided on the image side of the seventh lens 170, and an image sensor 300 is provided on the image side of the filter 200.

[0188] In Tables 6-1 and 6-2 above, when the lens surface is a convex surface protruding towards the object side or a concave surface recessed towards the object side, the radius of curvature is set to a positive value; when the lens surface is a convex surface protruding towards the image side or a concave surface recessed towards the image side, the radius of curvature is set to a negative value.

[0189] Furthermore, Tables 6-1 and 6-2 above show the aspherical coefficients A4, A6, A8, A10, A12, A14, and A16 when each face has an aspherical shape, as represented by the mathematical formula 1 above.

[0190] Here, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the radius of curvature R31 of the object-side lens surface (fifth surface 5) of the third lens 130 is -5.882 mm, and the radius of curvature R32 of the image-side lens surface (sixth surface 6) of the third lens 130 is -2.425 mm. Therefore, the following condition 1 is satisfied:

[0191] 0.300<(R31+R32) / (R31-R32)<3.500.

[0192] In this embodiment, condition 1 is satisfied. Therefore, the value of the radius of curvature of the object-side lens surface of the third lens and the value of the radius of curvature of the image-side lens surface of the third lens will not be too close. This ensures the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately corrects aberrations, and enables the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

[0193] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 1.000 < (R31 + R32) / (R31 - R32) < 3.000 is satisfied. Therefore, the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens can be better ensured, aberrations can be properly corrected, and the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens can be achieved.

[0194] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the focal distance f3 of the third lens 130 is 7.039 mm, and the focal distance f of the wide-angle lens as a whole is 1.026 mm. Therefore, the following condition 2 is satisfied:

[0195] 3.000 < f3 / f < 12.500.

[0196] In condition 2, if f3 / f is below 3.000, the positive optical power becomes too strong, making it difficult to properly correct various chromatic aberrations such as field curvature, magnification chromatic aberration, and coma chromatic aberration, and making it difficult to achieve excellent optical characteristics; on the other hand, if f3 / f is above 12.500, the lens diameter and the distance between the object and the image are too large, making it difficult to miniaturize wide-angle lenses.

[0197] In contrast, in this embodiment, since condition 2 is satisfied, it has the advantages of achieving excellent optical characteristics and miniaturizing the wide-angle lens.

[0198] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 5.000 < f3 / f < 10.000 is satisfied, thus having the advantages of achieving better optical characteristics and miniaturization of wide-angle lenses.

[0199] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the radius of curvature R41 of the object-side lens surface (seventh surface 7) of the fourth lens 140 is -6.368 mm, and the radius of curvature R42 of the image-side lens surface (eighth surface 8) of the fourth lens 140 is -2.397 mm. Therefore, the following condition 3 is satisfied:

[0200] 0.300<(R41+R42) / (R41-R42)<3.500.

[0201] In this embodiment, condition 3 is satisfied. Therefore, the value of the radius of curvature of the object-side lens surface of the fourth lens and the value of the radius of curvature of the image-side lens surface of the fourth lens will not be too close. This ensures the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately corrects aberrations, and enables the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

[0202] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 1.000 < (R41 + R42) / (R41 - R42) < 3.000 is satisfied. Therefore, the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens can be better ensured, aberrations can be properly corrected, and the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens can be achieved.

[0203] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the focal distance f4 of the fourth lens 140 is 5.655mm, and the focal distance f of the wide-angle lens as a whole is 1.026mm. Therefore, the following condition 4 is satisfied:

[0204] 4.000 < f4 / f < 7.500.

[0205] In condition 4, if f4 / f is below 4.000, the positive optical power becomes too strong, making it difficult to properly correct various chromatic aberrations such as field curvature, magnification chromatic aberration, and coma chromatic aberration, and making it difficult to achieve excellent optical characteristics; on the other hand, if f4 / f is above 7.500, the lens diameter and the distance between the object and the image are too large, making it difficult to miniaturize wide-angle lenses.

[0206] In contrast, in this embodiment, since condition 4 is satisfied, it has the advantages of achieving excellent optical characteristics and miniaturizing the wide-angle lens.

[0207] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 4.500 < f4 / f < 6.000 is satisfied, thus having the advantages of achieving better optical characteristics and miniaturization of wide-angle lenses.

[0208] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the object-image distance d is 13.403 mm, and the overall focal distance f of the lens system is 1.026 mm. Therefore, the following condition 5 is satisfied:

[0209] 11.000 < d / f < 15.000

[0210] In condition 5, if d / f is below 11.000, it is not easy to properly correct various aberrations. On the other hand, if d / f is above 15.000, the overall length of the lens system becomes too long.

[0211] In contrast, in this embodiment, since condition 5 is satisfied, it is easy to properly correct various aberrations, easily obtain excellent optical characteristics, and suppress the lens system from becoming too large while avoiding the overall length of the lens system becoming too long.

[0212] In summary, in this embodiment, by constructing the wide-angle lens 1000 in the manner described above, as follows... Figures 10A to 12L As shown, it can ensure the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately correct aberrations, and achieve overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

The sixth lens 160 and the seventh lens 170 are bonded together with an adhesive to form a joint lens.

[0216] Since the basic structure of the wide-angle lens 1000 in this embodiment (i.e., whether the first lens 110, the second lens 120, the third lens 130, the fourth lens 140, the fifth lens 150, the sixth lens 160, and the seventh lens 170 have positive or negative optical power, whether they are glass lenses or plastic lenses, whether the object-side surface and the image-side surface are convex or concave, and whether they are spherical or aspherical) is the same as that of the wide-angle lens in Embodiment 1, it will not be elaborated on here.

[0217] In addition, such as Figure 13 As shown, similar to Embodiment 1, a light-shielding sheet 190 is provided between the second lens 120 and the fourth lens 130, a filter 200 is provided on the image side of the seventh lens 170, and an image sensor 300 is provided on the image side of the filter 200.

[0218] In this embodiment, the overall focal length f (Effective Focal Length) of the lens system is 1.011 mm, the object-to-image distance d (Total Track) is 13.404 mm, the image space F / # is 2.03, the maximum field of view is 109 degrees, and the entrance pupil diameter HEP is 0.498 mm.

[0227] In Tables 8-1 and 8-2 above, when the lens surface is a convex surface protruding towards the object side or a concave surface recessed towards the object side, the radius of curvature is set to a positive value; when the lens surface is a convex surface protruding towards the image side or a concave surface recessed towards the image side, the radius of curvature is set to a negative value.

[0228] Furthermore, Tables 8-1 and 8-2 above show the aspherical coefficients A4, A6, A8, A10, A12, A14, and A16 when each face has an aspherical shape, as represented by the mathematical formula 1 above.

[0229] Here, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the radius of curvature R31 of the object-side lens surface (fifth surface 5) of the third lens 130 is -13.541 mm, and the radius of curvature R32 of the image-side lens surface (sixth surface 6) of the third lens 130 is -3.273 mm. Therefore, the following condition 1 is satisfied:

[0230] 0.300<(R31+R32) / (R31-R32)<3.500.

[0231] In this embodiment, condition 1 is satisfied. Therefore, the value of the radius of curvature of the object-side lens surface of the third lens and the value of the radius of curvature of the image-side lens surface of the third lens will not be too close. This ensures the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately corrects aberrations, and enables the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

[0232] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 1.000 < (R31 + R32) / (R31 - R32) < 3.000 is satisfied. Therefore, the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens can be better ensured, aberrations can be properly corrected, and the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens can be achieved.

[0233] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the focal distance f3 of the third lens 130 is 7.736 mm, and the focal distance f of the wide-angle lens as a whole is 1.011 mm. Therefore, the following condition 2 is satisfied:

[0234] 3.000 < f3 / f < 12.500.

[0235] In condition 2, if f3 / f is below 3.000, the positive optical power becomes too strong, making it difficult to properly correct various chromatic aberrations such as field curvature, magnification chromatic aberration, and coma chromatic aberration, and making it difficult to achieve excellent optical characteristics; on the other hand, if f3 / f is above 12.500, the lens diameter and the distance between the object and the image are too large, making it difficult to miniaturize wide-angle lenses.

[0236] In contrast, in this embodiment, since condition 2 is satisfied, it has the advantages of achieving excellent optical characteristics and miniaturizing the wide-angle lens.

[0237] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 5.000 < f3 / f < 10.000 is satisfied, thus having the advantages of achieving better optical characteristics and miniaturization of wide-angle lenses.

[0238] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the radius of curvature R41 of the object-side lens surface (seventh surface 7) of the fourth lens 140 is -20.063 mm, and the radius of curvature R42 of the image-side lens surface (eighth surface 8) of the fourth lens 140 is -3.188 mm. Therefore, the following condition 3 is satisfied:

[0239] 0.300<(R41+R42) / (R41-R42)<3.500.

[0240] In this embodiment, condition 3 is satisfied. Therefore, the value of the radius of curvature of the object-side lens surface of the fourth lens and the value of the radius of curvature of the image-side lens surface of the fourth lens will not be too close. This ensures the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately corrects aberrations, and enables the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

[0241] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 1.000 < (R41 + R42) / (R41 - R42) < 3.000 is satisfied. Therefore, the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens can be better ensured, aberrations can be properly corrected, and the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens can be achieved.

[0242] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the focal distance f4 of the fourth lens 140 is 5.873 mm, and the focal distance f of the entire wide-angle lens is 1.011 mm. Therefore, the following condition 4 is satisfied:

[0243] 4.000 < f4 / f < 7.500.

[0244] In condition 4, if f4 / f is below 4.000, the positive optical power becomes too strong, making it difficult to properly correct various chromatic aberrations such as field curvature, magnification chromatic aberration, and coma chromatic aberration, and making it difficult to achieve excellent optical characteristics; on the other hand, if f4 / f is above 7.500, the lens diameter and the distance between the object and the image are too large, making it difficult to miniaturize wide-angle lenses.

[0245] In contrast, in this embodiment, since condition 4 is satisfied, it has the advantages of achieving excellent optical characteristics and miniaturizing the wide-angle lens.

[0246] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 4.500 < f4 / f < 6.000 is satisfied, thus having the advantages of achieving better optical characteristics and miniaturization of wide-angle lenses.

[0247] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the object-image distance d is 13.404 mm, and the overall focal distance f of the lens system is 1.011 mm. Therefore, the following condition 5 is satisfied:

[0248] 11.000 < d / f < 15.000

[0249] In condition 5, if d / f is below 11.000, it is not easy to properly correct various aberrations. On the other hand, if d / f is above 15.000, the overall length of the lens system becomes too long.

[0250] In contrast, in this embodiment, since condition 5 is satisfied, it is easy to properly correct various aberrations, easily obtain excellent optical characteristics, and suppress the lens system from becoming too large while avoiding the overall length of the lens system becoming too long.

[0251] In summary, in this embodiment, by constructing the wide-angle lens 1000 in the manner described above, as follows... Figures 14A to 16L As shown, it can ensure the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately correct aberrations, and achieve overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

Figures 20A to 20L In the figure, the maximum scale of the vertical axis is ±50.000 μm.

[0254] like Figure 17 As shown, the wide-angle lens 1000 includes a first lens 110, a second lens 120, a third lens 130, a fourth lens 140, an aperture 180, a fifth lens 150, a sixth lens 160, and a seventh lens 170 arranged sequentially from the object side (L1 side). The sixth lens 160 and the seventh lens 170 are bonded together with an adhesive to form a joint lens.

[0255] Since the basic structure of the wide-angle lens 1000 in this embodiment (i.e., whether the first lens 110, the second lens 120, the third lens 130, the fourth lens 140, the fifth lens 150, the sixth lens 160, and the seventh lens 170 have positive or negative optical power, whether they are glass lenses or plastic lenses, whether the object-side surface and the image-side surface are convex or concave, and whether they are spherical or aspherical) is the same as that of the wide-angle lens in Embodiment 1, it will not be elaborated on here.

[0256] In addition, such as Figure 17 As shown, similar to Embodiment 1, a light-shielding sheet 190 is provided between the second lens 120 and the fourth lens 130, a filter 200 is provided on the image side of the seventh lens 170, and an image sensor 300 is provided on the image side of the filter 200.

[0257] In this embodiment, the overall focal length f (Effective Focal Length) of the lens system is 1.021 mm, the object-to-image distance d (Total Track) is 13.398 mm, the image space F / # is 2, the maximum field of view is 108 degrees, and the entrance pupil diameter HEP is 0.511 mm.

[0266] In Tables 10-1 and 10-2 above, when the lens surface is a convex surface protruding towards the object side or a concave surface recessed towards the object side, the radius of curvature is set to a positive value; when the lens surface is a convex surface protruding towards the image side or a concave surface recessed towards the image side, the radius of curvature is set to a negative value.

[0267] Furthermore, Tables 10-1 and 10-2 above show the aspherical coefficients A4, A6, A8, A10, A12, A14, and A16 when the aspherical shape of each face is represented by the mathematical formula 1 above.

[0268] Here, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the radius of curvature R31 of the object-side lens surface (fifth surface 5) of the third lens 130 is -41.052 mm, and the radius of curvature R32 of the image-side lens surface (sixth surface 6) of the third lens 130 is -3.608 mm. Therefore, the following condition 1 is satisfied:

[0269] 0.300<(R31+R32) / (R31-R32)<3.500.

[0270] In this embodiment, condition 1 is satisfied. Therefore, the value of the radius of curvature of the object-side lens surface of the third lens and the value of the radius of curvature of the image-side lens surface of the third lens will not be too close. This ensures the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately corrects aberrations, and enables the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

[0271] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 1.000 < (R31 + R32) / (R31 - R32) < 3.000 is satisfied. Therefore, the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens can be better ensured, aberrations can be properly corrected, and the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens can be achieved.

[0272] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the focal distance f3 of the third lens 130 is 7.227 mm, and the focal distance f of the wide-angle lens as a whole is 1.021 mm. Therefore, the following condition 2 is satisfied:

[0273] 3.000 < f3 / f < 12.500.

[0274] In condition 2, if f3 / f is below 3.000, the positive optical power becomes too strong, making it difficult to properly correct various chromatic aberrations such as field curvature, magnification chromatic aberration, and coma chromatic aberration, and making it difficult to achieve excellent optical characteristics; on the other hand, if f3 / f is above 12.500, the lens diameter and the distance between the object and the image are too large, making it difficult to miniaturize wide-angle lenses.

[0275] In contrast, in this embodiment, since condition 2 is satisfied, it has the advantages of achieving excellent optical characteristics and miniaturizing the wide-angle lens.

[0276] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 5.000 < f3 / f < 10.000 is satisfied, thus having the advantages of achieving better optical characteristics and miniaturization of wide-angle lenses.

[0277] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the radius of curvature R41 of the object-side lens surface (seventh surface 7) of the fourth lens 140 is 35.384 mm, and the radius of curvature R42 of the image-side lens surface (eighth surface 8) of the fourth lens 140 is -3.636 mm. Therefore, the following condition 3 is satisfied:

[0278] 0.300<(R41+R42) / (R41-R42)<3.500.

[0279] In this embodiment, condition 3 is satisfied. Therefore, the value of the radius of curvature of the object-side lens surface of the fourth lens and the value of the radius of curvature of the image-side lens surface of the fourth lens will not be too close. This ensures the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately corrects aberrations, and enables the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

[0280] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 1.000 < (R41 + R42) / (R41 - R42) < 3.000 is satisfied. Therefore, the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens can be better ensured, aberrations can be properly corrected, and the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens can be achieved.

[0281] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the focal distance f4 of the fourth lens 140 is 5.224 mm, and the focal distance f of the entire wide-angle lens is 1.021 mm. Therefore, the following condition 4 is satisfied:

[0282] 4.000 < f4 / f < 7.500.

[0283] In condition 4, if f4 / f is below 4.000, the positive optical power becomes too strong, making it difficult to properly correct various chromatic aberrations such as field curvature, magnification chromatic aberration, and coma chromatic aberration, and making it difficult to achieve excellent optical characteristics; on the other hand, if f4 / f is above 7.500, the lens diameter and the distance between the object and the image are too large, making it difficult to miniaturize wide-angle lenses.

[0284] In contrast, in this embodiment, since condition 4 is satisfied, it has the advantages of achieving excellent optical characteristics and miniaturizing the wide-angle lens.

[0285] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 4.500 < f4 / f < 6.000 is satisfied, thus having the advantages of achieving better optical characteristics and miniaturization of wide-angle lenses.

[0286] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the object-image distance d is 13.398 mm, and the overall focal distance f of the lens system is 1.021 mm. Therefore, the following condition 5 is satisfied:

[0287] 11.000 < d / f < 15.000

[0288] In condition 5, if d / f is below 11.000, it is not easy to properly correct various aberrations. On the other hand, if d / f is above 15.000, the overall length of the lens system becomes too long.

[0289] In contrast, in this embodiment, since condition 5 is satisfied, it is easy to properly correct various aberrations, easily obtain excellent optical characteristics, and suppress the lens system from becoming too large while avoiding the overall length of the lens system becoming too long.

[0290] In summary, in this embodiment, by constructing the wide-angle lens 1000 in the manner described above, as follows... Figures 18A to 20L As shown, it can ensure the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately correct aberrations, and achieve overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

The sixth lens 160 and the seventh lens 170 are bonded together with an adhesive to form a joint lens.

[0294] Since the basic structure of the wide-angle lens 1000 in this embodiment (i.e., whether the first lens 110, the second lens 120, the third lens 130, the fourth lens 140, the fifth lens 150, the sixth lens 160, and the seventh lens 170 have positive or negative optical power, whether they are glass lenses or plastic lenses, whether the object-side surface and the image-side surface are convex or concave, and whether they are spherical or aspherical) is the same as that of the wide-angle lens in Embodiment 1, it will not be elaborated on here.

[0306] Furthermore, Tables 12-1 and 12-2 above show the aspherical coefficients A4, A6, A8, A10, A12, A14, and A16 when each face has an aspherical shape, as represented by the mathematical formula 1 above.

[0307] Here, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the radius of curvature R31 of the object-side lens surface (fifth surface 5) of the third lens 130 is -14.140 mm, and the radius of curvature R32 of the image-side lens surface (sixth surface 6) of the third lens 130 is -3.818 mm. Therefore, the following condition 1 is satisfied:

[0308] 0.300<(R31+R32) / (R31-R32)<3.500.

[0309] In this embodiment, condition 1 is satisfied. Therefore, the value of the radius of curvature of the object-side lens surface of the third lens and the value of the radius of curvature of the image-side lens surface of the third lens will not be too close. This ensures the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately corrects aberrations, and enables the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

[0310] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 1.000 < (R31 + R32) / (R31 - R32) < 3.000 is satisfied. Therefore, the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens can be better ensured, aberrations can be properly corrected, and the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens can be achieved.

[0311] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the focal distance f3 of the third lens 130 is 9.374 mm, and the focal distance f of the wide-angle lens as a whole is 1.018 mm. Therefore, the following condition 2 is satisfied:

[0312] 3.000 < f3 / f < 12.500.

[0313] In condition 2, if f3 / f is below 3.000, the positive optical power becomes too strong, making it difficult to properly correct various chromatic aberrations such as field curvature, magnification chromatic aberration, and coma chromatic aberration, and making it difficult to achieve excellent optical characteristics; on the other hand, if f3 / f is above 12.500, the lens diameter and the distance between the object and the image are too large, making it difficult to miniaturize wide-angle lenses.

[0314] In contrast, in this embodiment, since condition 2 is satisfied, it has the advantages of achieving excellent optical characteristics and miniaturizing the wide-angle lens.

[0315] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 5.000 < f3 / f < 10.000 is satisfied, thus having the advantages of achieving better optical characteristics and miniaturization of wide-angle lenses.

[0316] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the radius of curvature R41 of the object-side lens surface (seventh surface 7) of the fourth lens 140 is -22.250 mm, and the radius of curvature R42 of the image-side lens surface (eighth surface 8) of the fourth lens 140 is -2.713 mm. Therefore, the following condition 3 is satisfied:

[0317] 0.300<(R41+R42) / (R41-R42)<3.500.

[0318] In this embodiment, condition 3 is satisfied. Therefore, the value of the radius of curvature of the object-side lens surface of the fourth lens and the value of the radius of curvature of the image-side lens surface of the fourth lens will not be too close. This ensures the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately corrects aberrations, and enables the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

[0319] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 1.000 < (R41 + R42) / (R41 - R42) < 3.000 is satisfied. Therefore, the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens can be better ensured, aberrations can be properly corrected, and the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens can be achieved.

[0320] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the focal distance f4 of the fourth lens 140 is 4.796 mm, and the focal distance f of the entire wide-angle lens is 1.018 mm. Therefore, the following condition 4 is satisfied:

[0321] 4.000 < f4 / f < 7.500.

[0322] In condition 4, if f4 / f is below 4.000, the positive optical power becomes too strong, making it difficult to properly correct various chromatic aberrations such as field curvature, magnification chromatic aberration, and coma chromatic aberration, and making it difficult to achieve excellent optical characteristics; on the other hand, if f4 / f is above 7.500, the lens diameter and the distance between the object and the image are too large, making it difficult to miniaturize wide-angle lenses.

[0323] In contrast, in this embodiment, since condition 4 is satisfied, it has the advantages of achieving excellent optical characteristics and miniaturizing the wide-angle lens.

[0324] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 4.500 < f4 / f < 6.000 is satisfied, thus having the advantages of achieving better optical characteristics and miniaturization of wide-angle lenses.

[0325] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the object-image distance d is 13.383 mm, and the overall focal distance f of the lens system is 1.018 mm. Therefore, the following condition 5 is satisfied:

[0326] 11.000 < d / f < 15.000

[0327] In condition 5, if d / f is below 11.000, it is not easy to properly correct various aberrations. On the other hand, if d / f is above 15.000, the overall length of the lens system becomes too long.

[0328] In contrast, in this embodiment, since condition 5 is satisfied, it is easy to properly correct various aberrations, easily obtain excellent optical characteristics, and suppress the lens system from becoming too large while avoiding the overall length of the lens system becoming too long.

[0329] In summary, in this embodiment, by constructing the wide-angle lens 1000 in the manner described above, as follows... Figures 22A to 24L As shown, it can ensure the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately correct aberrations, and achieve overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

[0332] like Figure 25 As shown, the wide-angle lens 1000 includes a first lens 110, a second lens 120, a third lens 130, a fourth lens 140, an aperture 180, a fifth lens 150, a sixth lens 160, and a seventh lens 170 arranged sequentially from the object side (L1 side). The sixth lens 160 and the seventh lens 170 are bonded together with an adhesive to form a joint lens.

[0333] Since the basic structure of the wide-angle lens 1000 in this embodiment (i.e., whether the first lens 110, the second lens 120, the third lens 130, the fourth lens 140, the fifth lens 150, the sixth lens 160, and the seventh lens 170 have positive or negative optical power, whether they are glass lenses or plastic lenses, whether the object-side surface and the image-side surface are convex or concave, and whether they are spherical or aspherical) is the same as that of the wide-angle lens in Embodiment 1, it will not be elaborated on here.

[0334] In addition, such as Figure 25 As shown, similar to Embodiment 1, a light-shielding sheet 190 is provided between the second lens 120 and the fourth lens 130, a filter 200 is provided on the image side of the seventh lens 170, and an image sensor 300 is provided on the image side of the filter 200.

[0335] In this embodiment, the overall focal length f (Effective Focal Length) of the lens system is 1.019 mm, the object-to-image distance d (Total Track) is 13.381 mm, the image space F / # is 2.0163, the maximum field of view is 108 degrees, and the entrance pupil diameter HEP is 0.505 mm.

[0344] In Tables 14-1 and 14-2 above, when the lens surface is a convex surface protruding towards the object side or a concave surface recessed towards the object side, the radius of curvature is set to a positive value; when the lens surface is a convex surface protruding towards the image side or a concave surface recessed towards the image side, the radius of curvature is set to a negative value.

[0345] Furthermore, Tables 14-1 and 14-2 above show the aspherical coefficients A4, A6, A8, A10, A12, A14, and A16 when the aspherical shape of each face is represented by the mathematical formula 1 above.

[0346] Here, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the radius of curvature R31 of the object-side lens surface (fifth surface 5) of the third lens 130 is -11.789 mm, and the radius of curvature R32 of the image-side lens surface (sixth surface 6) of the third lens 130 is -3.818 mm. Therefore, the following condition 1 is satisfied:

[0347] 0.300<(R31+R32) / (R31-R32)<3.500.

[0348] In this embodiment, condition 1 is satisfied. Therefore, the value of the radius of curvature of the object-side lens surface of the third lens and the value of the radius of curvature of the image-side lens surface of the third lens will not be too close. This ensures the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately corrects aberrations, and enables the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

[0349] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 1.000 < (R31 + R32) / (R31 - R32) < 3.000 is satisfied. Therefore, the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens can be better ensured, aberrations can be properly corrected, and the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens can be achieved.

[0350] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the focal distance f3 of the third lens 130 is 10.047 mm, and the focal distance f of the wide-angle lens as a whole is 1.019 mm. Therefore, the following condition 2 is satisfied:

[0351] 3.000 < f3 / f < 12.500.

[0352] In condition 2, if f3 / f is below 3.000, the positive optical power becomes too strong, making it difficult to properly correct various chromatic aberrations such as field curvature, magnification chromatic aberration, and coma chromatic aberration, and making it difficult to achieve excellent optical characteristics; on the other hand, if f3 / f is above 12.500, the lens diameter and the distance between the object and the image are too large, making it difficult to miniaturize wide-angle lenses.

[0353] In contrast, in this embodiment, since condition 2 is satisfied, it has the advantages of achieving excellent optical characteristics and miniaturizing the wide-angle lens.

[0354] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 5.000 < f3 / f < 10.000 is satisfied, thus having the advantages of achieving better optical characteristics and miniaturization of wide-angle lenses.

[0355] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the radius of curvature R41 of the object-side lens surface (seventh surface 7) of the fourth lens 140 is -22.250 mm, and the radius of curvature R42 of the image-side lens surface (eighth surface 8) of the fourth lens 140 is -2.713 mm. Therefore, the following condition 3 is satisfied:

[0356] 0.300<(R41+R42) / (R41-R42)<3.500.

[0357] In this embodiment, condition 3 is satisfied. Therefore, the value of the radius of curvature of the object-side lens surface of the fourth lens and the value of the radius of curvature of the image-side lens surface of the fourth lens will not be too close. This ensures the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately corrects aberrations, and enables the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

[0358] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 1.000 < (R41 + R42) / (R41 - R42) < 3.000 is satisfied. Therefore, the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens can be better ensured, aberrations can be properly corrected, and the overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens can be achieved.

[0359] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the focal distance f4 of the fourth lens 140 is 4.797 mm, and the focal distance f of the entire wide-angle lens is 1.019 mm. Therefore, the following condition 4 is satisfied:

[0360] 4.000 < f4 / f < 7.500.

[0361] In condition 4, if f4 / f is below 4.000, the positive optical power becomes too strong, making it difficult to properly correct various chromatic aberrations such as field curvature, magnification chromatic aberration, and coma chromatic aberration, and making it difficult to achieve excellent optical characteristics; on the other hand, if f4 / f is above 7.500, the lens diameter and the distance between the object and the image are too large, making it difficult to miniaturize wide-angle lenses.

[0362] In contrast, in this embodiment, since condition 4 is satisfied, it has the advantages of achieving excellent optical characteristics and miniaturizing the wide-angle lens.

[0363] In particular, in this embodiment, the relationship 4.500 < f4 / f < 6.000 is satisfied, thus having the advantages of achieving better optical characteristics and miniaturization of wide-angle lenses.

[0364] Furthermore, in the wide-angle lens 1000, the object-image distance d is 13.381 mm, and the overall focal distance f of the lens system is 1.019 mm. Therefore, the following condition 5 is satisfied:

[0365] 11.000 < d / f < 15.000

[0366] In condition 5, if d / f is below 11.000, it is not easy to properly correct various aberrations. On the other hand, if d / f is above 15.000, the overall length of the lens system becomes too long.

[0367] In contrast, in this embodiment, since condition 5 is satisfied, it is easy to properly correct various aberrations, easily obtain excellent optical characteristics, and suppress the lens system from becoming too large while avoiding the overall length of the lens system becoming too long.

[0368] In summary, in this embodiment, by constructing the wide-angle lens 1000 in the manner described above, as follows... Figures 26A to 28L As shown, it can ensure the positive optical power of the wide-angle lens, appropriately correct aberrations, and achieve overall miniaturization of the wide-angle lens.

[0371] Furthermore, in the above embodiments, the first lens 110 and the fifth lens 150 may also be made of plastic lenses, and the second lens 120, the third lens 130, the fourth lens 140, the sixth lens 160 and the seventh lens 170 may also be made of glass lenses.
