Imaging lens
DCFirst Claim
1. An imaging lens comprising, in order from the object side and without any intervening lens components, the following:
- a first lens component of positive refractive power and a meniscus shape with its convex lens surface on the object side;
a second lens component of positive refractive power and a meniscus shape with its convex lens surface on the image side; and
a third lens component of negative refractive power and having a concave lens surface on the image side;
whereinboth lens surfaces of said third lens component are aspheric; and
the negative refractive power of said third lens component gradually decreases from the center of said third lens component toward the periphery of said third lens component and the peripheral region of said third lens component has positive refractive power.

Abstract
An imaging lens includes, in order from the object side, a positive meniscus first lens component with its convex lens surface on the object side, a positive meniscus second lens component with its convex lens surface on the image side, and a negative third lens component with its concave lens surface on the image side. At least both lens surfaces of the negative third component are aspheric, and all six lens surfaces of the three lens components may be aspheric. The negative refractive power of the third lens component gradually decreases from the center of the third lens component toward the periphery of said third lens component and the peripheral region of the third lens component, outside 70% of its radius, has positive refractive power. The imaging lens may consist of only three lens components or elements. A diaphragm is positioned between the first and second lens components.
