Abstract
An image pickup lens is provided for forming an image of an object on a photoelectrical converter of a solid-state image pickup element. The image pickup lens includes, in order from an object side thereof: an aperture stop; a first lens having a positive refractive power; a second lens having a negative refractive power and including a concave surface facing an image side of the image pickup lens; a third lens including an aspheric surface; and a fourth lens including an aspheric surface. The image pickup lens satisfies predetermined conditions relating to a curvature radius of the surface of the second lens facing the image side and a refractive power of the third lens.

An image pickup lens for forming an image of an object on a photoelectrical converter of a solid-state image pickup element, the image pickup lens comprising, in order from an object side thereof:
- an aperture stop;
- a first lens having a positive refractive power;
- a second lens having a negative refractive power and comprising a concave surface facing an image side of the image pickup lens;
- a third lens comprising an aspheric surface;
- and
- a fourth lens comprising an aspheric surface,
- wherein the image pickup lens satisfies following expressions:
- 0.30<f1/f<0.85,
- 0.2<r4/f<0.7, and
- 0 <|P3/P|<0.7,
- where f1 is a focal length of the first lens,
- r4 is a curvature radius of the surface of the second lens facing the image side,
- f is a focal length of a total system of the image pickup lens, P3 is a refractive power of the third lens, and
- P is a refractive power of the total system of the image pickup lens.
