ABSTRACT:
This specification discloses a projection lens for projecting an original onto the surface of a sensor and for use in a facsimile apparatus or a digital copying apparatus. The projection lens enables the image of the original to be projected onto the sensor at different projection magnifications with the length of the optical path between the surface of the original and the sensor kept constant. The projection lens comprises, in succession from the object side, a first lens group comprising a negative meniscus lens having its convex surface facing the object side, and a positive meniscus lens having its convex surface facing the object side, the first lens group as a whole having a negative refractive power, and a second lens group having three positive lenses and a negative lens, the second lens group as a whole having a positive refractive power. The first lens group is stationary and the second lens group is movable, whereby the image of the original is projected onto the surface of the sensor at different projection magnifications with the object-image distance being kept constant.
