In recent years, driven by technologies like 5G, the sharing of videos like vlogs has become increasingly popular, and more and more people are using mobile phones, cameras, and other tools to shoot short videos and micro-films.

[0003] However, the typical shooting ratio on mobile phones, tablets, cameras, and other devices on the market is 16:9, while the ratio for cinematic widescreen videos is 2.4:1. Furthermore, shooting a good micro-film or video requires lenses of different focal lengths to work together, especially close-ups of characters, which require medium- to long-focus anamorphic lenses.

[0004] Existing anamorphic lenses have technical problems such as high price, large size and weight, large breathing effect and inconsistent magnification. Summary of the Invention

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this application. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0021] like Figure 1-6 The anamorphic lens shown includes a first spherical lens group 100, a first cylindrical lens group 200, a second spherical lens group 300, a second cylindrical lens group 400 and a third spherical lens group 500 arranged in sequence along the optical path from the object side to the image side.

[0022] The first spherical lens group 100 includes a first lens 1, a second lens 2, and a third lens 3 arranged in sequence along the optical path from the object side to the image side. The first lens 1 is a spherical lens with positive optical power, the second lens 2 is a spherical lens with negative optical power, and the third lens 3 is a spherical lens with negative optical power.

[0023] The first cylindrical lens group 200 includes a fourth lens 4, a fifth lens 5, and a sixth lens 6 arranged in sequence along the optical path from the object side to the image side. The fourth lens 4 and the fifth lens 5 are both cylindrical lenses with negative optical power, and the sixth lens 6 is a cylindrical lens with positive optical power.

[0024] The second spherical lens group 300 includes a seventh lens 7, an eighth lens 8, and a ninth lens 9 arranged in sequence along the optical path from the object side to the image side. The seventh lens 7 and the ninth lens 9 are both spherical lenses with positive optical power, and the eighth lens 8 is a spherical lens with negative optical power.

[0025] The second cylindrical lens group 400 includes a tenth lens 10 and an eleventh lens 11 sequentially arranged along the optical path from the object side to the image side. The tenth lens 10 is a cylindrical lens with positive refractive power, and the eleventh lens 11 is a cylindrical lens with negative refractive power.

[0026] The third spherical lens group 500 includes a twelfth lens 12, a thirteenth lens 13, a fourteenth lens 14, a fifteenth lens 15, and a sixteenth lens 16, which are arranged in sequence along the optical path from the object side to the image side. The twelfth lens 12 and the fourteenth lens 14 are both spherical lenses with negative optical power, the thirteenth lens 13 and the fifteenth lens 15 are both spherical lenses with positive optical power, and the sixteenth lens 16 is an aspherical lens with negative optical power.

[0027] The focal lengths of the first lens 1 to the sixteenth lens 16 are distributed to satisfy the following relationship: 1.1 <f(1~16)Y / f(1~16)X<1.6; 1.6 <f(3)X / f(1~3)X<2.4; -8 <f(4~6)X / f(1~16)X<-5.3; -12 <f(10~11)Y / f(9~16)Y<-8; -3.5 <f(12~16)X / f(1~16)X<-2.3; Wherein, the curvature direction of the fourth lens is the X direction, and the Y direction is the direction perpendicular to X; f(m~n)Y is the comprehensive optical focal length from the mth lens to the nth lens along the Y direction, and f(m~n)X is the comprehensive optical focal length from the mth lens to the nth lens along the X direction, m and n are both positive integers, 1≤m <n≤16。

[0028] This anamorphic lens combines an X-direction cylindrical lens group with a spherical lens group to rationally distribute optical power, making the anamorphic lens's optical structure more compact and cost-effective. The spherical lens group provides comprehensive correction for light, and then leverages the optical properties of the cylindrical lens group to "compress" horizontally entering light while maintaining vertical light. This increases the lens' horizontal field of view and ensures performance in the X direction. The Y-direction cylindrical and spherical lens groups stabilize performance in the other direction. This achieves half-frame and high magnification. Furthermore, the compact design of the integrated cylindrical and spherical lenses makes the lens small and lightweight, significantly reducing cost. The aspherical lens effectively corrects spherical aberration and astigmatism, improving resolution while reducing size and weight.

[0029] In this embodiment, the anamorphic lens has a comprehensive optical focal length in the Y direction of 30 to 50 mm. The zoom ratio of the anamorphic lens is within the range of 1.25X to 1.4X, and the magnification ratio remains constant at different object distances. The total optical length of the anamorphic lens does not exceed 150 mm. The aperture of the anamorphic lens does not exceed 2.

[0030] In this embodiment, the third lens 3 moves back and forth to achieve internal focusing. While the overall length of the lens remains unchanged during adjustment, the forward and backward movement of the third lens 3 allows for focusing from an object-image distance of 0.65m to infinity, while overcoming the technical difficulties of anamorphic lenses with their significant breathing effect and variable magnification.

[0031] In this embodiment, the twelfth lens 12 and the thirteenth lens 13 are cemented together to form a double cemented spherical lens. The fourteenth lens 14 and the fifteenth lens 15 are cemented together to form a double cemented spherical lens. The fifth lens 5 and the sixth lens 6 are cemented together to form a double cemented cylindrical lens. The tenth lens 10 and the eleventh lens 11 are cemented together to form a double cemented cylindrical lens. The double cemented spherical lens is used to correct the optical chromatic aberration of the anamorphic lens in the horizontal and vertical directions.

[0032] It should be pointed out that the above-mentioned multiple groups of double-glued spherical lenses are combined by bonding. As an alternative embodiment, based on the concept of the present application, in order to distinguish it from the present application, after the above-mentioned combination method is changed, such as bonding, integral molding and other combination methods, and then the shape of the combined lens is adaptively changed, it should also be included in the protection scope of the present application. For a single lens or two consecutive lenses with the same optical power, a single lens can be split into two or more lenses, and two consecutive lenses with the same sign can be combined into one lens. Such simple transformations of the optical structure of the patent, such as the distribution of the optical power of the transformed lens or lens group, are within the scope of the mathematical relationship expression of the patent. On the basis of this embodiment, changes and replacements of the number and combination of lenses in order to distinguish it from the present application, without departing from the main idea of the present application, all fall within the protection scope of the present application.

It can be seen from the curves in the figure that the field curvature is basically less than ±0.2, ensuring that the image has the same clarity in a large field of view; the distortion is less than 5%, ensuring that the imaging image has a small deformation.

[0035] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 , by adjusting the third lens 3 in the anamorphic lens, the overall length of the anamorphic lens remains unchanged, achieving an ultra-close object-image distance of 0.5m. Figure 6 As shown in the figure, the field curvature and distortion diagrams of the anamorphic lens at close object distances can be seen from the curves in the figure. It can be seen that the field curvature is basically less than ±0.5, ensuring that the image has the same clarity in a large field of view; the distortion is less than 10%, ensuring that the imaging image has a small deformation.
