ABSTRACT:
It is to provide an imaging lens that maintains optical performance and achieves reduction in size and weight. The imaging lens comprises, in order from an object side towards an image surface side, a first lens which is a meniscus lens having a positive power whose convex surface faces the object side, a diaphragm, a second lens which is a meniscus lens having a positive power whose convex surface faces the image surface side, and a third lens which is a biconcave lens having a negative power, wherein the following conditions are to be satisfied; 1.3≧L/fl≧1, 0.8≧f1/fl≧0.6, 0.12≧f1/f2>0, −0.1≧f1/f3≧−0.25 (where, L: entire length of the lens system [distance from the surface of the object side of the first lens to the image taking surface [air reduced length]], fl: focal distance of the entire lens system, f1: focal distance of the first lens, f2: focal distance of the second lens, and f3: focal distance of the third lens).
