ABSTRACT:
It is an object of the present invention to provide an imaging device that, even if the optical axis of the multifocal lens has a deviation resulting from its decentered surfaces, can prevent an image from being deteriorated by the low precision lens. The imaging device comprises a solid state image sensor for taking an image of an object to produce an image signal indicative of the image, an aspherical single focus lens, a bifocal lens disposed in front of the solid state image sensor, the bifocal lens having two focal distances, and an aperture diaphragm located just before the bifocal lens.
