Abstract

A projection lens for projecting an image appearing on a cathode-ray tube onto a screen, small in residual aberrations, having a high imaging performance, also having a large aperture ratio and a wide field angle, suitable for a video projector having a high definition of, say, 1,125 scanning lines. The projection lens has, successively from the screen side, a Gauss type lens system, a positive lens mainly for enlarging the aperture ratio, and a negative lens mainly for widening the field angle, which negative lens has a strongly concave surface at the screen end.
