Embodiments for Carrying Out the Invention

[0011] Hereinafter, the optical system, the optical device, and the method for manufacturing the optical system according to the embodiments of the present application will be described.

[0012] The optical system of the present embodiment consists of a front group, an aperture stop, and a rear group in order from the object side. The front group has at least three negative lenses and at least one positive lens in order from the object side. The rear group has at least four lenses and satisfies the following conditional expressions (1) 8.90 < ΣT1 / f < 18.00 (2) 2.00 < (-f12) / f< 4.20 (3) 160.00° < 2ω However, ΣT1: The thickness on the optical axis of the front group f: The focal length of the optical system f12: The focal length of the second lens arranged from the object side in the front group 2ω: The total field angle of the optical system

[0013] By having a front group having at least three negative lenses and at least one positive lens in order from the object side and a rear group having at least four lenses, the optical system of the present embodiment can realize an optical system with good correction of chromatic aberration, astigmatism, distortion aberration, coma aberration, and spherical aberration.

[0014] Conditional expression (I) defines the ratio of the thickness on the optical axis of the front group to the focal length of the entire optical system. By satisfying conditional expression (I), the optical system of the present embodiment can appropriately correct various aberrations such as distortion aberration, field curvature, spherical aberration, and coma aberration while suppressing an increase in the overall length of the optical system.

[0015] When the value of conditional expression (I) exceeds the upper limit value in the optical system of the present embodiment, the overall length of the optical system increases, and it becomes difficult to appropriately correct various aberrations such as distortion aberration and field curvature.

[0016] In the optical system of the present embodiment, by setting the upper limit value of the conditional expression (1) to 18.00, the effects of the present embodiment can be made more certain. Further, in order to make the effects of the present embodiment more certain, it is preferable to set the upper limit value of the conditional expression (1) to 17.00, 16.00, 15.00, 14.00, 13.00, and further 12.50.

[0017] Also, in the optical system of the present embodiment, when the value of the conditional expression (1) is less than the lower limit value, it becomes difficult to appropriately correct various aberrations such as spherical aberration, coma aberration, and field curvature.

[0018] In the optical system of the present embodiment, by setting the lower limit value of the conditional expression (1) to 8.90, the effects of the present embodiment can be made more certain.

By satisfying the conditional expression (2), the optical system of the present embodiment can appropriately correct various aberrations such as field curvature and astigmatism while suppressing an increase in the diameter of the lens arranged closest to the object side.

[0022] Also, in the optical system of the present embodiment, when the value of conditional expression (2) is lower than the lower limit value, the power of the second lens arranged from the object side of the front group becomes stronger, and it becomes necessary to increase the diameter in order to weaken the power of the lens arranged most on the object side of the front group for aberration correction.

[0023] In the optical system of the present embodiment, by setting the lower limit value of conditional expression (2) to 2.00, the effects of the present embodiment can be made more certain.

[0027] Conditional expression (4) defines the ratio of the air interval on the optical axis between the lens arranged most on the object side and the second lens arranged from the object side in the front group to the focal length of the front group.

Further, in order to make the effects of the present embodiment more certain, it is preferable to set the upper limit value of conditional expression (5) to 8.70, 8.50, 8.20, 7.80, and further 7.60.

[0036] Further, when the value of conditional expression (5) is below the lower limit value in the optical system of the present embodiment, the overall length of the optical system increases, and it becomes difficult to appropriately correct various aberrations such as spherical aberration and coma aberration.

[0217] Each of the above embodiments shows a specific example of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited thereto. The following content can be appropriately adopted within the range that does not impair the optical performance of the optical system of the form of this application.

[0218] In the optical system of each of the above embodiments, the aperture stop may be configured to substitute its role with the lens frame without providing a member.

[0219] The lens surface of the lens constituting the optical system of each of the above embodiments may be a spherical surface or a flat surface, or may be an aspherical surface. When the lens surface is a spherical surface or a flat surface, lens processing and assembly adjustment are facilitated, and deterioration of optical performance due to errors in lens processing and assembly adjustment can be prevented, which is preferable. Also, it is preferable because deterioration of the rendering performance is small even when the image plane is shifted. When the lens surface is an aspherical surface, it may be any of an aspherical surface by grinding, a glass mold aspherical surface formed by molding glass into an aspherical shape with a mold, or a composite aspherical surface formed by forming a resin provided on the glass surface into an aspherical shape. Also, the lens surface may be a diffractive surface, and the lens may be a gradient-index lens (GRIN lens) or a plastic lens.

[0220] An antireflection film having a high transmittance in a wide wavelength range may be provided on the lens surface of the lens constituting the optical system of each of the above embodiments. Thereby, flare and ghost can be reduced, and optical performance with high contrast can be achieved.

[0221] Next, a camera including the optical system of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 15. FIG. 15 is a schematic diagram of a camera including the optical system of the present embodiment.

[0222] The camera 1 is a so-called omnidirectional camera that includes the optical systems according to the first embodiment as photographing lenses 2-1 and 2-2, one on each of one surface and the opposite surface thereof.

[0223] In the camera 1, light from an object (subject) (not shown) is condensed by the photographing lens 2-1 or 2-2 and reaches the imaging device 3-1 or 3-2. The imaging devices 3-1 and 3-2 convert the light from the subject into image data, respectively.

[0224] Also, when a release button (not shown) is pressed by the photographer, the image data is stored in a memory (not shown). In this way, the photographer can photograph the subject with the camera 1.

[0225] Here, the optical system of the first embodiment mounted on the camera 1 as the photographing lenses 2-1 and 2-2 is an optical system having a small size and good optical performance. Therefore, the camera 1 can achieve a small size and good optical performance. Note that even if a camera is configured by mounting the optical systems of the second to seventh embodiments as the photographing lenses 2-1 and 2-2, the same effects as those of the camera 1 can be obtained. Also, the number of optical systems mounted on the camera 1 is not limited to two, and may be one or three or more.

[0226] Finally, an outline of the manufacturing method of the optical system of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 16. FIG. 16 is a flowchart showing an outline of the manufacturing method of the optical system of the present embodiment.

[0230] In step S2, the optical system may satisfy the following conditional expressions together. (5) 1.30 < f / DS < 9.00 (4) 0.10 < D112 / (-f1) < 1.22 (3) 160.00° < 2ω However, f: Focal length of the optical system DS: Air space on the optical axis between the lens arranged most on the image side in the front group and the lens arranged most on the object side in the rear group D112: Air space on the optical axis between the lens arranged most on the object side in the front group and the second lens arranged from the object side f1: Focal length of the front group 2ω: Entire angle of view of the optical system

[0231] In step S2, the optical system may satisfy the following conditional expressions together. (7) 10.00 < TL / f < 27.00 (8) 3.00 < f2l / f < 5.40 (9 2.15 < f11 / f12 < 4.00 (3) 160.00° < 2ω However, TL: Total length of the entire optical system in terms of air equivalent length f: Focal length of the optical system f2l: Focal length of the lens arranged most on the image side in the rear group f11: Focal length of the lens arranged most on the object side in the front group f12: The focal length of the second lens arranged from the object side in the front group 2ω: The total angle of view of the optical system

[0232] According to the manufacturing method of the optical system of the present embodiment, an optical system having a small size and good imaging performance can be manufactured.

[0233] It should be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, substitutions, and modifications can be added to this without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
