Abstract
A folded lens system includes a lens module including a plurality of lenses, an image sensor having an imaging plane, and a first reflection module disposed between the lens module and the image sensor and configured to change a path of light passing through the lens module a plurality of times. The light passing through the lens module is subjected to three total internal reflections and two reflections by the first reflection module.

A folded lens system comprising:
- a lens module comprising a plurality of lenses;
- an image sensor having an imaging plane;
- and
- a first reflection module disposed between the lens module and the image sensor and configured to change a path of light passing through the lens module a plurality of times,
- wherein the light passing through the lens module is subjected to three total internal reflections and two reflections by the first reflection module,
- wherein the plurality of lenses have a total of five lenses,
- wherein the lens module satisfies IMG HT/FBL<0.7, where IMG HT is a diagonal length of the imaging plane, and FBL is a distance from an apex of an image-side surface of a lens closest to the image sensor to the imaging plane, and
- wherein the lens module satisfies TTL/f<0.75, where TTL is a distance from an apex of an object-side surface of a lens farthest from the image sensor to the imaging plane, and f is a total focal length of the lens module.
