Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An optical system includes a first lens having negative refractive power and having two concave surfaces, a second lens having positive refractive power, a third lens having refractive power, a fourth lens having refractive power, a fifth lens having refractive power, a sixth lens having refractive power, and a seventh lens having refractive power. The first to seventh lenses are sequentially disposed from an object side.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An optical system comprising: a first lens having negative refractive power and having two concave surfaces; a second lens having positive refractive power, wherein both surfaces of the second lens are convex; a third lens having positive refractive power and having meniscus shape in which an object-side surface of the third lens is convex; a fourth lens having refractive power; a fifth lens having refractive power; a sixth lens having refractive power; and a seventh lens having refractive power, wherein the first to seventh lenses are sequentially disposed from an object side, the second lens among the first to seventh lenses has a second largest effective radius and the seventh lens has at least one inflection point formed on at least one of an object-side surface and an image-side surface of the seventh lens. 2. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein the fourth lens has positive refractive power. 3. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein both surfaces of the fourth lens are convex. 4. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein the fifth lens has negative refractive power. 5. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein the fifth lens has a meniscus shape in which an image-side surface of the fifth lens is convex. 6. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein the sixth lens has positive refractive power. 7. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein both surfaces of the sixth lens are convex. 8. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein the seventh lens has negative refractive power. 9. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein the seventh lens has a meniscus shape in which an object-side surface of the seventh lens is convex. 10. The optical system of claim 1 , further comprising a stop disposed between the fourth and fifth lenses. 11. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein the fourth to seventh lenses are provided as plastic lenses. 12. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein all respective surfaces of the first to seventh lenses are aspherical. 13. An optical system comprising: a first lens having negative refractive power and having two concave surfaces; a second lens having refractive power; a third lens having positive refractive power and having meniscus shape in which an object-side surface of the third lens is convex; a fourth lens having refractive power; a fifth lens having negative refractive power, wherein the fifth lens has a meniscus shape in which an image-side surface of the fifth lens is convex; a sixth lens having refractive power; and a seventh lens having refractive power, wherein the first to seventh lenses are sequentially disposed from an object side, the second lens among the first to seventh lenses has a second largest effective radius, and the seventh lens has at least one inflection point formed on at least one of an object-side surface and an image-side surface of the seventh lens. 14. The optical system of claim 13 , wherein the fourth lens has positive refractive power and two convex surfaces. 15. The optical system of claim 13 , wherein the sixth lens has positive refractive power and two convex surfaces. 16. The optical system of claim 13 , wherein the seventh lens has negative refractive power and has a meniscus shape in which an object-side surface of the seventh lens is convex. 17. The optical system of claim 13 , further comprising a stop disposed between the fourth and fifth lenses. 18. An optical system comprising: a first lens having negative refractive power and having two concave surfaces; a second lens having positive refractive power; a third lens having positive refractive power and having meniscus shape in which an object-side surface of the third lens is convex; a fourth lens having refractive power; a fifth lens having refractive power; a sixth lens having refractive power; and a seventh lens having negative refractive power, wherein the first to seventh lenses are sequentially disposed from an object side, the second lens among the first to seventh lenses has a second largest effective radius, and the seventh lens has at least one inflection point formed on at least one of an object-side surface and an image-side surface of the seventh lens.
