Abstract

An optical imaging system includes a plurality of lenses sequentially disposed from an object side. The plurality of lenses include a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, a fifth lens, a sixth lens, and a seventh lens disposed in this order. The second lens has positive refractive power. 0.9<|(R1+R2)/(R1−R2)|<1.1, and 0.4<TTL/(2×IMG HT)<0.65 are satisfied, where R1 is a radius of curvature of an object-side surface of the first lens, R2 is a radius of curvature of an image-side surface of the first lens, TTL is a distance on an optical axis from the object-side surface of the first lens to an imaging plane, and IMG HT is a half of a diagonal length of the imaging plane.
