Abstract

An imaging system, including a light valve and a projection lens, is provided. The projection lens has a reduction side and a magnification side, and includes a lens group and a convex mirror. The light valve is configured on the reduction side. The projection lens is configured to image the beam from the light valve on a projection surface, and the projection surface is configured on the magnification side. There is an included angle between the projection surface and a light receiving surface. The lens group is configured on an optical path between the magnification side and the reduction side, and includes first to seventh lens elements sequentially arranged from the magnification side to the reduction side. The refractive powers of the first to seventh lens elements are respectively negative, negative, positive, positive, negative, positive, and positive. The convex mirror is configured on an optical path between the lens group and the magnification side. A projection device, including the imaging system, is also provided.
