Abstract
A retrofocus-type objective for endoscopes comprising a front diverging lens group and rear converging lens group, said rear lens group being divided into a first lens group and second lens group, said retrofocus-type objective being arranged to be focused by varying the airspace between said first and second lens groups. By the above arrangement, the front lens is kept fixed and serves also as a cover glass so that the retrofocus-type objective as a whole becomes small in size.

A retrofocus-type objective for endoscopes comprising a front diverging lens group and a rear converging lens group consisting of a first lens group and a second lens group, said retrofocus-type objective for endoscopes being arranged to be focused by varying the airspace between said first and second lens groups while fixing said front diverging lens group at a constant position.
A retrofocus-type objective for endoscopes comprising a front diverging lens group and rear converging lens group, said front diverging lens group comprising a first negative lens component, said rear converging lens component comprising a second positive lens component, third positive lens component and fourth positive cemented doublet lens component, said retrofocus-type objective for endoscopes being arranged to be focused by integrally moving said third and fourth lens components, said retrofocus-type objective for endoscopes having numerical values as given below:
